>>>   My Info:   Win7_64, Nightly 47, 32bit, ID 20160224030246
STR:
1. Open the following "data:" url or click URL in the form above
>  data:text/html,<form><input name="q"><style>body{height:10000px}input:focus{outline:2px solid green} 
2. Let I=1. Repeat 10 times:   type I into <input>, press Enter. Increase I by 1.
 [now you have at least 10 suggestions in <input>]
3. Focus <input>
4. Scroll page to the end using mouse wheel or the scrollbar (<input> must stay focused)
5. Press Down key

AR:  Suggestions appear on top of the screen
ER:  Suggestions should appear below the <input>, just like in non-e10s. See screenshots.

Thanks for the report. Clearing the needinfo so that this shows up in our next triage.

A bug that we should eventually fix, but it's a bit polish and it's not a regression (has always existed with e10s).. I personally wouldn't block e10s on it..

Moving to p3 because no activity for at least 1 year(s).
