Details

(Whiteboard: [necko-would-take]) 

STR: navigate to 'example.com..' (i.e., not a valid DNS name)
Expected results: an invalid domain name error, or automatically re-writing the domain to 'example.com' or 'example.com.'
Actual results: the navigation succeeds (although the site itself returns a 400)
This might be specific to linux.
