(Whiteboard: p-safari) 

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.7) Gecko/2009032803 Iceweasel/3.0.6 (Debian-3.0.6-1)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Use the search bar to search the Web for the word [ fred ].
2.  Open a new tab.
3.  Search for [ barney ].
4.  Go back to the previous tab.

Actual Results:  
The search bar still says [ barney ].


Expected Results:  
Because you've gone back to the first tab, the search bar should actually say [ fred ] again.


At http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.mozilla.ui/3535 Alex Faaborg agrees that this idea is a good idea.

This idea is like Camino bug 408078, but for Firefox instead.
