Steps, assuming you're logged into Twitter:
1. Start typing a tweet
2. Load another page
3. Back

Result: my tweet is gone. Neither bfcache nor layout history saved me :(

Is the page bfcached?  I assume not.

For layout history... it's not saved if the page is no-store, for example.  It can also be overridden if the page clears text via script and whatnot.  Are any of those things happening here?

Hi Jesse,

I have tested this issue on latest Firefox (44.0.2), latest Nightly (47.0a1) build and I could not reproduce it. I have wrote a tweet then loaded another page but when I have returned back the written tweet was there.

Firefox: 44.0.2, Build ID: 20160210153822
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:44.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/44.0
Firefox: 47.0a1, Build ID: 20160223030304
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0

Considering this, I will mark this issue as resolved - worksforme. If you can still reproduce this, feel free to reopen it and provide the requested information.

Thanks,
Cosmin.
