If the last thing you've interacted with in a tab is the awesome bar drop down, and the tab loses and regains focus, the awesome bar switches mode, such that the results listed in the drop down are filtered by the site you're currently visiting.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. use profile which has visited at least two domains
  2. click down arrow in awesome bar
  3. switch to new (or just another) tab
  4. switch back
  5. click down arrow in awesome bar again
  6. results are now filtered

The only way to exit this filter mode seems to be to focus the awesome bar, and press 'esc' on the keyboard.

I might have a weird work flow, but this happens to me surprisingly often, and it took me a while to figure out how exactly I was triggering it.

Thanks for reporting this. We actually just fixed this a couple of days ago in Nightly, in bug 1559264, so I'll mark this bug as a duplicate. We also fixed it in 68, so you should see the fix in the next Beta build, too. If I'm wrong, or if you can still reproduce the problem in the latest Nightly, then please comment here in the bug again.
