Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:54.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/54.0
Build ID: 20170616092053

Steps to reproduce:

Open any new (on a slow internet connection).


Actual results:

Page stays blank and the address bar is cleared - making it impossible to reload the page or to find out which page you were going to access.


Expected results:

Address bar should contain the correct URL so you can reload the page or copy the URL.
This issue has persisted since the last few months. I'm not sure since which version this issue started. Something that may be completely unrelated: this started after I noticed the same issue with Dolphin browser on mobile.

Same issue on Windows 7, 8, 10, Linux Mint.

Especially when internet is slow, I am used to opening several tabs and wait for them to load. When some pages don't load, I have no idea which page is was going to visit.
