6. Press CTRL+L to focus the location bar
7. Type "addons" into the location bar and select Switch to Tab
8. Type "cnn" into the location bar and select Switch to Tab
9. Type" "engadget" into the location bar and select Switch to Tab

I cannot reproduce this behaviour on Linux.  So far, it appears to be Windows-only.

Bug 546253 should fix this.

Also, this should be reproducible on all OSes.

the remaining problem is here http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/components/places/src/nsPlacesTriggers.h#113 deleting entries from moz_places is still removing them from moz_openpages_temp, it should not.

I think that we wouldn't hold the entire release for this fix, so blocking-. Would really like to see a fix before final though. Imagine a really-want+ flag here.

I think this is now WFM, I couldn't find the remaining problem I expressed in comment 3 in current code, the trigger is quite different.
