when loading a site from bookmarks or history, the content from the last loaded site in the FF home browser does not get cleared while the new site is still processing.   I suggest you clear the entire page instead of showing the cached site from before.

Repro:
1) Login into FF Home b11
2) open up a bookmark or history in the FF Home browser.  Before the site finishes loading, quickly click "Done".   (Remember what you see cached before you hit Done
3) now choose another bookmark or history to load.   
4) Verify as the new site is loading, you see the cached data from the last site you loaded.

Expected:
- Step 4 can be confusing since you're looking at a previous site and not the one you are attempting to load.  I suggest just clearing the content and showing a blank area on every page load
