Bug 1048618 added an observer in content.js that will be fired (and cause a jump from C++ to JS code) for each tab, despite the notification being only relevant for one tab.

Another possible solution that involves only one observer is to add the observer in a content JS module.
Probably keyword-uri-fixup just shouldn't be a nsIObserver notification, and instead be a message sent to the specific browser's message manager.
