User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 Build ID: 20180124084836 Steps to reproduce: Go to any web site that permits file uploading. Go to the file selection dialog (by pressing a suitable UI button). Type in path that you want to select the file from and a file name. After Firefox has autocompleted one possible match, try editing. Actual results: UI becomes unresponsive, no more redraws, 100% CPU according to `top'. Expected results: No UI crash, Firefox should allow editing the file name.
Can you reproduce the problem in a brand new profile in the latest Nightly? https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles https://nightly.mozilla.org
