1396721 - Location bar says "search or enter address" on unrestored tabs for a short time after switching to it

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect, P3)

Description

[Dietrich Ayala (:dietrich)]

57.0a1 (2017-09-04) (64-bit) Mac OS X

STR:

1. restore a session at browser startup

2. switch to a non-active and non-pinned tab

Expected: location bar has the tab URL

Actual: location bar has "search or enter address" for a short time before changing to actual URL.

Sometimes it's up to half a second, and sometimes just a flash.

Either way, it's a regression.
