When I begin typing in a website I have previously visited, I use the arrow keys
to scroll down to the full URL in the location autocomplete dropdown. When the
correct URL is selected, I hit enter. The dropdown disappears and the address
field becomes empty.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Begin typing in URL to site you have previously visited.
2. Select the appropriate complete URL using down arrow key.
3. Hit enter.

Actual Results:  
Stay at current website. Address field goes blanks.

Expected Results:  
Taken me to the selected URL.

I believe this is a regression from 20051007xx (whatever precise build the new
update software updated to on that day) to 2005100807.
