215262 - autocomplete in location bar not cancelled if location changed manually

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 190449

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Derek Monner]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1

After tabbing or otherwise navigating through the autocomplete list for the
location bar, the last entry selected appears in the location bar but is not
loaded (this is correct).  However, if I then modify the URL in the location bar
to something not in the autocomplete list and press enter, the autocomplete
entry (pre-modification) is loaded instead of the URL that is currently showing
in the location bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new tab or reuse an existing tab.
2. Begin typing a URL in the location bar so at least one autocomplete entry is
displayed in a dropdown.
3. Use tab or arrow keys to highlight an autocomplete entry. It appears in the
location bar.
4. Click in the location bar and change the URL to something not in the
autocomplete list (the change, it appears, needs to be after the last / in the
URL, so as not to start up autocomplete again), then hit enter.

Actual Results:  
The previously selected autocomplete entry loads.

Expected Results:  
The location entered manually in the location bar should load.

I can't find it at the moment, but I believe this is a dupe.

Methinks this is a dupe of bug 190449

I no longer see that bug though, nor this one.
