i've loaded yahoo mail in one tab and than opened new tab and fired gmail url. after that i've switch back to yahoo mail tab and started filling the usename and suddenly the textbox leave the focus. when i switch back to gmail tab i found that the half username that i type in yahoo mail tab is inserted in username taxtbox of gmail tab. 
   this thing happens very frequently. even visa-versa is also happening. what i've notice is, if the page has set focus textbox by default, the loaded page set the focus to the page no matter if is active or not. 
   just because of this i've loose my passward 2-3 times publicly. do let me know if you need any other information. my gmail id is [e-mail]

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open yahoo mail in one tab
2. open new tab and open gmail
3. go back to yahoo mail tab and start filling username and password
4. now if the gmail loaded in the background tab before you complete the filling   information in the yahoo mail, the focus will be lost from yahoo mail tab and will set to gmail tab.

Actual Results:  
when this happens, whatever you type in one tab will go to the tab running in background.

Expected Results:  
it should remain focus on the active tab and all the information filled on the ative page must be remain on the same page.

Fixed in 1.5. I'd recommend updating.
