Steps to reproduce
- Visit 'https://1.0.0.1/'
- Tap the 'Address' bar
- Input 'https://www.entrust.com'
Expected Behavior
When navigating to https://www.entrust.com, the page should load directly without displaying content from the previously visited https://1.0.0.1/.
Alternatively, in Step 2, the page should not return to the homepage but instead stay on the current website before directly navigating to the intended website.
Actual Behavior
In Step 2, the screen returns to the homepage.
In Step 3, during the loading of https://www.entrust.com, the page initially displays content from https://1.0.0.1/ before eventually loading the intended https://www.entrust.com website.
Notes
This issue causes confusion by displaying content from a previously visited site, making it seem like the wrong website was entered.

I don't see an issue with showing the currently loaded page briefly as we try to retrieve the new URL that was entered in the address bar. It's pretty standard behavior. The alternative would be go show a blank screen in between which would be even weirder. For comparison, Google Chrome behaves exactly the same.

When you tap the address bar, on Fenix part of the flow is to show you what you've bookmarked and suggested links so you don't have to retype those. It's the expected behavior. If you close the address bar popup by swiping left, you'll go back to whatever page you were on.
For your reference, I'm attaching a screen recording on both Firefox Nightly and Google Chrome to show you what I'm seeing on both. Please let me know if I misunderstood this ticket and feel free to reopen.
