When I type a new URL into the location bar for a tab, then press ALT-ENTER to
open the URL in a new tab, the previous tab retains the URL that I typed. I
would have expected it to revert to the URL that is currently loaded in that tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. CTRL-L, www.google.com
2. CTRL-L, news.bbc.co.uk, ALT-ENTER
3. CTRL-SHIFT-TAB, notice location bar contains "news.bbc.co.uk", not
"www.google.com".
4. Pressing ESC in the location bar of the previous tab will reset the URL as
expected.
In step 1, I forgot to mention pressing ENTER. :)  </pedant>
