Firefox crashes after a particular series of steps involving the search box.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start with one tab open at any webpage.
2.search for something in the google search box installed automatically with firefox
3. Search results open in a new tab in background mode (tabbrowser preference
1.2.2 behavoiur)
4. close the new tab
5. select some text in the original tab and drag to the search box (which still
contains the original search text)

Actual Results:  
Firefox exits and the talkback agent opens.

Expected Results:  
A new search should have been performed on the selected and dragged text.

No additional information, however I've sent off a few reports through the
talkback program
