Hi,
I'm setting component to Firefox - Address Bar for someone to take a look at this suggestion.
Thanks.

This has been discussed and filed many times, we'll add a pref to disable opening top sites on focus in bug 1627858 but we won't add a pref to disable urlbar field expansion (again, the reasons have been expressed multiple times).
Could you share a link to discussion where decision was made to expand location bar on focus? I'm interested in reasons behind that logic.
