Cursor focus should be the URL bar when a page loads (even when empty) so that
one can immediatly type an URL. Or, when pressing the "tab" key, the URL line
should be selected. Seems easy to fix ;-) and a real time saver....
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open new page
2. Type URL
3.
Actual Results:
Nothing
Expected Results:
URL being typed should appear in URL bar
Invalid. When a page loads, focus is given to the content area intentionally.
Focus is only given to the URL field in a new *blank* window or tab.

I still consider it a nuisance/bug, because the objective is to be able to type
a new URL fast without using the mouse to click on the location bar. At least
pressing the TAB key should cycle through all the clickable areas of a page
INCLUDING the location bar. Maybe "Shift Tab" should always put the focus on the
location bar ?

Carlo, use Cmd-L it will put the focus in the Location bar and show the location
bar in a sheet if the toolbar is not visible. So Cmd-L always put the focus in it.
Carlo, that's another bug. Search Bugzilla for it. This is Invalid.
