When hitting Ctrl-K after opening up a new tab via Ctrl-T, I see the top-right search box briefly get focus (the contents blink), then the in-the-middle-of-the-page search box gets focus.

Thanks,

Thanks for the report - this should be fixed by bug 1054776.

Works all right!

I can confirm this flicker happened in old build 34.0a1 (2014-08-16).
Since bug 1054776 fixes this, I'll note that I've tested this already as per comment https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1054776#c17 
Awaiting confirmation from other platforms. Ratul, can you test in other platform?

Tested the latest Nightly on Ubuntu 14.04(repeated) and Windows 8.1, both 64 bit.
On Windows 8.1, on every new tab pressing ctrl + k will make the search bar on right got focus momentarily before the Google search box in the middle of the page. This occurred even on safe mode.
On Ubuntu 14.04, it doesn't happen that often. I tried in on at least 15 new tabs, and it flashed around 4 or 5 times. I couldn't see it before because I tried it only twice on Comment 4.
Ratul, did you test that on an older build?
Or does that mean that the flickering still happens on Nightly?

I just tried it out on Firefox 31, also in safe mode. Pressing ctrl + k will let the search box on left get focus, and the cursor stays there.

Extremely sorry for the late reply, have been facing internet connection problems.
