When you go to a webpage (ie homepage) and are in the search bar the focus will get stolen once the page loads.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to Google
2. Go to the search bar (before Google loads)
3. Wait
Actual Results:  
the focus will get stolen and then if you had already started to typed something focus will get stolen and then you will have 1/2 of what you wanted when you start searching.

Expected Results:  
The search box should keep the focus
It happens due to the running js script which sets the focus to the google search text field. This is a dupe of bug 125282.
