Sometime an URL displayed somewhere is splitted into several lines. When you
copy and paste it into Firebird's URL bar only the first line comes in. Instead,
Firebird should automatically removes the line ends (andeventual white spaces)
to "restore" the original URL.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find (or type in Notepad) an URL that is splitted into several lines.
2. Copy the lines
3. Paste into Firebird's URL bar

Actual Results:  
Only the first line appears in the URL bar.

Expected Results:  
Firebird automatically "restores" the URL.

In further consideration, the processing of text pasted into the URL can be
enhanced even to recognize both single URL splitted over multiple lines and
multiple URLs on multiple lines (recognizable on multiple "http://") to open all
the pasted URLs in different tabs/windows.

This discussion has been/is being had in bug 23485. I'm pretty sure this is a
dupe, but if you think it's not then reopen and mark this as depends on bug 23485.
