:gwarser, if you think that's a regression, then could you try to find a regression range in using for example mozregression?

Side note: it will be a lot easier if --pref option will be working correctly (probably bug 1246142 )

Thanks for running mozregression to confirm this is from bug 558594.

Tim, are you able to take a look?

Comment 4

[Tim Nguyen :ntim]

I can confirm this happens for me, thanks for filing!

I can't reproduce with data:text/html,<input type="search">, so probably just something conflicting in the searchbar click/focus event listener and <input type="search">.

Anyway, nobody is currently working on this feature, and it's still behind a preference, so I'll leave this for now.
