I was using Find in Page feature on a webpage and then I switched to a different website to search something else. When I start typing the new search criteria, Fennec has crashed.

Can we close this as WORKSFORME? I don't see any Nightly 17 or Aurora 16 crashes CalledFromWrongThreadException within the last 28 days.

Aurora and Nightly populations (1-2k) are much smaller than Beta and Release ones (100-600k). As there are only four crashes in Beta, we can't say it's fixed.

Sriram, do you know why an editable TextView would be running on our GeckoBackgroundThread instead of the UI thread?

With that stack trace, I don't see it anymore in 16.0 Beta and above.
