(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Strainu]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; ro; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; ro; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2

When using the auto-complete feature in the address bar, a slash is added at the end of the suggestion for some texts. It appears for all the strings that begin with a protocol ("http://" or "ftp://"), but not for the other addresses.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write "http://www" in the address bar. Some suggestions appear.
2. Choose one of them using the "down" or "up" keys, then go back using the other key.
Actual Results:  
The new text in the address bar is "http://www/" (it has an added trailing slash).

Expected Results:  
The text should remain unchanged: "http://www".

The same thing happens when going through all the suggestions without selecting one.

Confirming for now since I didn't find any dupe. But it might be possible that there is already one, so I'm adding also [dupeme].

This happens also on Linux.

Bug 480642 looks to be the duplicate. Not the same steps - but looks to be the same result.

I've tested this on a Nightly build: 12.0a1 from 2012-01-23. Bug 480642 is resolved, but this one isn't.
