When clicking to focus the tabs aligned to the bottom, it appears that the location bar is automatically highlighted and selected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the URL: http://www.developerfriendly.com/files/developerfriendly/example-widgets.xul
2. Click on one of the tabs aligned to the bottom of a tabbox.

Actual Results:  
The location bar text was highlighted.

Expected Results:  
Tabs to work like those position to the side or top of the tabbox.

I check the page over with firebug, and I didn't find any scripts that might be doing this. I've so far only tested in the latest public user release of firefox. It has been unreproducible on minefield on a linux system.
