User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) I have http://www.google.com set as my home page. If I open a new window, sometimes my network is a bit slow, and it takes a few seconds to load google.com. I press Ctrl-L and start typing away to where I want to go, but when Google loads, its search box steals focus. Thus, I'll probably run into a variant of the following scenario: I typed "nyti" in the location bar, Google steals focus, and I continue typing without stopping...I type "mes" and hit ctrl-enter. I will end up searching Google for "mes". :( Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set http://www.google.com as your homepage. 2. Open a new window. 3. Before Google loads, put the cursor on the location bar or put the cursor on the the search bar and start typing. 4. Wait for Google to load Actual Results: Google's search box steals focus. This often interrupts my typing, and is quite annoying. Expected Results: I can continue to type away on the location bar without interference.
