Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:76.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/76.0

Steps to reproduce:

0.update to some newly released version of Firefox.
1.choose an inputting method to input Chinese,like my sougou Pinyin or Microsoft Pinyin.
2.open a new tab, click location bar,input one word
3.input one blank.

Actual results:

4.now it happens:
a)I can no longer input words, the inputting method didn't react.
b)I can input another word,but just before or upon my inputting the word,Firefox crashed.
5.but as long as I use ESC key to unfocus location bar and again set focus on it, things just worked correctly.

Expected results:

no crash should have happened.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

Component: Untriaged → DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling
Product: Firefox → Core

more clues I find today:
6.It won't happen right after the crash when I restart Firefox.
7.when things get wrong there is a weird phenomenon that the auto-completion part didn't show its blue background:

8.If no inputting method were called, Firefox won't crash despite 7.
9.most inportantly, I just found it has much to do with the extension I used,Tree Style Tab.A new tab generated by this extention causes this problem,while one by Firefox's(usually ctrl+T) has not yet been problematic.
