Location-bar autocomplete doesn't highlight the trailing slash that it adds, & leaves it straggling if I hit backspace. (So "http://b" completes to "http://bing.com/ ", & backspace makes it "http://b/")

STR:
1. Start Firefox with e10s enabled, with an otherwise-fresh profile.
2. Start typing a HTTPS "www" url into the location bar -- in particular, type this:
https://w
---> It autocompletes to https://wikipedia.org/, with "ikipedia.org" highlighted, but **not the trailing slash**.
3. Hit backspace to try to clear the autocompleted text, or just keep typing some other characters.
ACTUAL RESULTS: You're left with a trailing slash that you didn't type. (If you hit backspace, you're left with "https://w/". If you continued typing, you're left with e.g. "https://www/")
EXPECTED RESULTS: The full autocompleted portion (including the trailing slash) should've been highlighted and overwritten/removed.
NOTE: This also happens with http://bing.com (and probably other URLs as well; these ones just happen to be pre-populated in our places database).
If you type in:
http://b
then it autocompletes to "http://bing.com/", with only "ing.com" highlighted (not the trailing slash). And then if you hit backspace, you get "http://b/"

In practice, this bug means that if you just start typing "https://www.whatever.com" into your URLbar, you end up getting a trailing slash inserted to the right of your cursor, as you're typing, which is a bit jarring & annoying.
Summary: [e10s] In E10s mode, location-bar autocomplete leaves a trailing "/" that isn't removed if I hit backspace → [e10s] In E10s mode, location-bar autocomplete doesn't highlight a trailing "/", and leaves it straggling behind if I hit backspace

Apologies -- looks like this has nothing to do with e10s. Not sure why I thought it did; I must've tested insufficiently.
In any case: I can reproduce, using the STR, without enabling e10s.
