if I'm copying a multiline url in the body of one page to the url bar of a brand
new tab, i have to switch  between tabs more than once. once i switch out from
the blank tab with an incomplete url pasted, it blanks out.

doing the same operation in multiple windows works.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. copy half a url from some where
2. create a new tab (notice the about:blank in the tab url bar)
3. paste the incomplete url into the url bar
4. tab away to a different tab
5. copy the rest of the url
6. tab back to the blank tab



Actual Results:  
incomplete url is gone. replace by about:blank
