When a page that loads and sets focus to a specific control is loaded in a background tab, that focus is not present when the tab is brought into view.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to www.google.com
2. Ctrl-Shift click on 'Images' to load new url into background
3. Switch to tab and see that focus is not on search control (this would be if it were not loaded in the background)



This bug is also present in Camino for a long time, not sure if its related or belongs to the Gecko product.
That works for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2b4pre) Gecko/20091123 Namoroka/3.6b4pre (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Neil, I would assume this has been fixed by your patch on bug 178324?
