The input box in ChatZilla 0.9.52 should keep the text in it when you switch
from single-line input to multi-line input and vice versa.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open ChatZilla
2. Join any channel
3. Type some text in to the single line input box.
4. Click the up arrow (or Ctrl + Up Arrow) to switch to Multi-line input.
5. Click the down arrow (or Ctrl + Down Arrow) to switch back to Single-Line input.

Steps 4 and 5 are swappable, i.e. the results occur whether switching one way or
other.

Actual Results:  
After performing step 4 the text disappears.
After performing step 5 the text re-appears.

Expected Results:  
After performing step 4 Chatzilla should show the text that was typed in step 3
in the multi-line input box.
