I cannot reproduce this... could you please try in Safe Mode, so we can exclude Add-ons.

I have tried this in both Linux(64 bit) and Windows 10(64 bit). In both safe mode and fresh profile. Still reproducible.

now I can reproduce, it doesn't happen every time, looks like there may be a race condition somewhere.

STR_2:  (assuming comment 0 is STR_1)
1. Open http://example.org/
2. Select all text in urlbar, type "asdf"
3. Open web console, execute  "onclick=()=>{history.pushState("123","123","123");}"  w/o outer quotes
4. Click on the page

AR:  Urlbar displays "asdf"
ER:  Either X or Y
 X) Value should change to "http://example.org/123", because user-generated event handler changed it
 Y) Value should change to "http://example.org/123", because urlbar wasn't focused


This is bug 435932, which was re-introduced by bug 1199934. See bug 1199934 comment 14
(why are you, the component owner, not listed in CC-list in both of those bugs?...)
According to comment 5, bug 435932 deserves "Priority -> P2". I can't set priority, so setting [NI?]

I also checked some builds proving that the issue re-appeared after bug 1199934:

it's hard to remember every single bug when you have thousands to remember. I watch the components though so I don't need to be cc-ed.
I'll move the info there.
