Steps to reproduce:
This has been happening for a few weeks in the Nightly branch. It is a regression since the issue wasn’t there before. I understand it’s caused only with a non-default setting which is as far as I know only adjustable in about:config, but the issue is quite bothersome for users who set it like this.
* Set `browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab` to `false`.
* Close tabs until you only have one empty one in one window.
* Try to use the address bar.
Actual results:
* It doesn’t work. You can type in it, but nothing happens when pressing Enter. No suggestion from the AwesomeBar appear either.
Expected results:
* It should work like in any other tabs, like it worked before.
`closeWindowWithLastTab` is a useful setting when you want to start a clean browsing session by just pressing ctrl+W until there’s only one tab left. With a non-functional address bar, it’s not possible to start doing anything without opening a second new tab.

This issue also happens with a clean profile? https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles.
