Recently changed themes, switched back to default, but problem persists.

Reproducible: Always

2. Open two tabs with different content (two different pages, a page and a
blank, etc)
3. Slide one tab over the other
4. Click unfocused tab.
Actual Results:  
The unfocused tab freezes: when selected, it shows the same contents as the one
that was focused during the switch. The tab that was unfocused during the switch
is nonfunctional.

Expected Results:  
Both tabs retain their contents and remain functional.

This bug leaves 'moving tabs' feature useless.

This works for me now in 1.5 beta 1. I didn't even create a new profile.
Kiarra, do you still see this problem?
