Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031024 Debian/1.5-2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031024 Debian/1.5-2

According to RFC 2616:

10.3.8 307 Temporary Redirect

   The requested resource resides temporarily under a different URI.
   Since the redirection MAY be altered on occasion, the client SHOULD
   continue to use the Request-URI for future requests.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to a 307 redirected URI
2. See the address bar

Actual Results:  
The URI in the Location field is shown.

Expected Results:  
The Request-URI should be shown.
The RFC doesn't mean that the client should not show the current URL in the URL
Bar. 
Mozilla should always show the current URL in the URL bar and don't hide URLs
from the user.
