User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

after typing a partial url, such as "www.mozil" and then the previous sites list
appears below, clicking on a complete entry, like "www.mozilla.com" doesn't load
the full url, only the partially entered one.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. type www.mozzi (or a site you've visited. i take it you've visited your own
site.)
2. click the complete entry (www.mozilla.com)

Actual Results:  
only the partially entered url loaded. (www.mozi)

Expected Results:  
load the full url.

This can be reproduced fairly reliably by:

1) Go to any site (helps to pick one that doesn't load instantly)

2) Wait for site to load.  In a short period after the throbber stops going
round, click the adress bar to highlight the URL

3) Immediately type the first letter of a previous URL that will register with
autocomplete

4) Immediately click one of the entries in the dropdown

The browser will often then act as if you'd just entered what you typed, in many
cases doing a search for the first letter(s) of the URL and fetching a
completely unrelated page.
