Steps to reproduce: 1. Surf around in Bugzilla 2. Focus the address bar and enter "bugz" 3. Hit [Down] (once or several times) and [Delete] Expected result: The next autocomplete suggestion is selected and thereby copied to the address bar. Actual result: The address bar still shows the just deleted address, thus breaking the [Delete]+[Enter] habit for removing an individual history entry which got too high a frecency.

No regression after all, this just doesn't work the same in the address bar and in other (content) autocomplete text fields.

Please read bug 514825 carefully and especially comment 3. I described why when deleting address it shouldnt be updated directly on the address bar if you didnt hit enter or arrow keys.

this WFM with shift+del on an history entry, the entry goes away and the next one is filled
