Starting to type a url such as facebook.com causes Nightly to autocomplete it with a slash at the end: "facebook.com/".

Almost no one terminates URLs with a slash. It is therefore odd that autocomplete chooses to include it. It also looks very weird and oddly proportioned.

Reproducible: Always


Actual Results:  
Location autocomplete terminates with a slash.

Expected Results:  
Location autocomplete does not terminate with a slash.
This is the intended behavior (implemented in bug 566489).
