If you open a dead link in a tab (Like using middle mouse-button) the link won't
show up in the opened tab's Location bar, this means you cannot change the link
or refresh the tab.

We also discussed in the forum if it would be a good idea to add the error (like
Server not responding) as the title of the tab

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open www.gfsiduhgiusdfg.com in a tab
2. After receiving the pop-up with an error, open the tab
3. Look at the location bar

Actual Results:  
Nothing is in the location bar

Expected Results:  
The URL of the link to be opened should be in the location bar
