when a new website is opened in a tab via ALT-ENTER, the URL of the new website
is shown in the 1st tab after switching back to it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open any website
2. open any other website in a new tab by entering a new url in the location bar
and pressing ALT-ENTER
3. switch back to the tab where the first site was opened in.
Actual Results:  
the location bar of the 1st website's tab shows the URL/address of the 2nd website.


Expected Results:  
old URL/address should remain

i got this error for the 1st time when switching from the official firebird
0.7-release to firefox (2004-02-08 IIRC).

although having search for a while for a similar bug, i couldn't figure out one
that seems to cover the same problem.
It is a dup of bug 227826, which describes exactly the same problem.
that's what it is -- thank you
