When I plug in an external monitor and drag my Firefox window to the external monitor, the address bar and search auto-complete appear in my primary (laptop) monitor rather than in the external monitor.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plug my MacBook into an external monitor
2. Drag Firefox window onto external monitor
3. Type in the address or search bar
Actual Results:  
Auto completed choices appear in the primary monitor where they would have been had I not moved the Firefox window

Expected Results:  
Displayed autocomplete for address bar and search on the external monitor
