User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Steps to reproduce:

  • Focus the address bar
  • Start typing

Reproducable in Nightly 68.0a1 and Firefox 66.0.2. This was not an issue in Firefox a couple versions ago, but I don't remember when it started.

Actual results:

The search suggestions flicker each time a new character is input. It seems that the search suggestions are clearing each time a character is input and only being redrawn after some network request.

Expected results:

The search suggestions should not be clearing each time the user types a character. They should be replaced once the new suggestions are found.
