1364387 - [RTL] URL bar text is faded out initially in new windows despite the text not overflowing the textbox

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect, P1)

Description

[Itiel]

Following bug 653670, I think we shouldn't fade out the URL bar text on a New Tab.
Having the "Search or enter address" text faded out (when focused and not) probably makes no sense.

This bug may (or may not) apply also to Firefox's pages such as about:debugging, about:config etc.

This event made us initially fade out the URL bar text in new windows despite the text not overflowing the textbox.
This is more visible in RTL builds as we right-align the URL bar value there.
