The search entry field shows two embed characters immediately after FF starts, but has no child accessibles carrying the embedded content. After typing in the search box, the situation remains exactly the same.

Attachment: 1) Use combo box accessible for all autocompletes, they have an embedded textfield already, 2) Don't use nodeName since it might have "xul:" prefix in string

I changed our other uses of nodeName to content->NodeInfo->Equals() while I was doing that anyway, since I saw it return "xul:textbox" instead of "textbox".

Right, NodeInfo()->Equals is the most reliable, although you could have used GetLocalName() etc.

Possibly fixes bug 352874 as well.
