Steps to reproduce:

2. Browse to any website
3. Tap on URL Bar
4. Perform a long tap on the URL Bar

Expected result:
After step 4, the Context Menu is triggered. There aren't any bounding arrows displayed for the URL Bar content.

Isn't this default Android behavior?

Depends on the modified OS. Screenshot showcases MotoBlur on Android with the modified behaviour. TouchWiz and Stock both don't do this. Not a Fennec issue imo.
