401161 - Hitting 'Enter' after entering new profile name causes two copies of profile to appear in profile list

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Startup and Profile System, defect)

Description

[Al Billings [:abillings - ex-MoCo]]

If a user creates a new profile but after naming the new profile, hit 'enter' to complete the profile creation, when the profile list appears, the new profile will be displayed twice. If the user clicks on the "Done" button, this duplicate rendering does not appear.

The profile is not actually created twice and the duplicate listing will not show up the next time Firefox is run. It only shows up in the profile manager during that session.

Steps to Reproduce
1. Start Firefox with the profile manager
2. Select to create a new profile
3. On the dialog for profile creation where the name is entered, type in a profile name and hit enter (do not click on "Done" there).

Result: The profile manager will come up with a list of profiles and the newly created profile will show up twice in the list.
