STR:
1. Enter some text into the address bar.
2. Press the Tab key.
3. The Yahoo! one-off search button will be selected instead of the first URL suggestion. (See bug 1292321 for discussion of this UX change.)
4. Oops. That's not what I wanted, so press the down-arrow key to select a URL suggestion from the drop-down list.
5. Press the Enter key to select the highlighted URL suggestion.

RESULT:
Instead of opening the highlighted URL suggestion, the Yahoo! one-off search is executed instead.
After pressing tab once, the down arrow should move the selection to the next one-off button (that's what happens in the searchbar). The strange behavior here seems to be a consequence of the double selection in the awesomebar (bug 1292630).
After bug 1292321 this should not happen anymore, right?

Chris, do you still see this?

This bug is no longer reproducible because the new address bar behavior was disabled in bug 1292321.
