2. Select all text in urlbar, type "about:" (w/o quotes), press Enter to load "about:" page.
3. Select all text in urlbar, type "bugzill"
 [suggestions list should display at least 1 item, because you visited this page with bug description]
4. Press Alt+Left    [to navigate back to "about:about" page. There's "about:about" in urlbar]

those complicate steps don't look needed, just visit 2 pages in the same tab, CTRL+L, type something that has results and press ALT+LEFT
The url is replaced but the ac popup is not closed.
Sounds like an unhandled edge case, we should close the autocomplete popup in case of navigation...
