Would be nice if you could set the "view" to require all frames to show the URL bar so that you can edit the URL and/or  edit the URL in the frame.   NOTE: IE7 will now require all popup windows have a URL bar and so this feature seems to be inline with what is fashionable.

Reproducible: Always
Summary: Would like all frames to show a URL bar → Would like all frames to show their own URL bars
This wouldn't protect you from phishing (it might even mislead you, since address bars in the content area could be spoofed) and it would break all kinds of uses of iframes.  I vote for wontfix.

Uh... This is nothing like bug 337344, sorry.  This bug isn't even about popup windows, necessarily, but all frames in general.  And bug 337344 is trying hard to not even have a URL bar on windows...

So do I.
Component: Location Bar and Autocomplete → Layout: HTML Frames
OS: Windows XP → All
Product: Firefox → Core
QA Contact: location.bar → layout.html-frames
Hardware: PC → All
This would completely break the Web.
