Details
If you have mozilla running, and enter the command line
"./mozilla -remote 'openurl()'", a Open Web Location dialog
will be presented.
However, if you have entries in that dialog for autocomplete matches,
as you type, the popup will open will potential matches. As you continue
to type, to the point that you no longer have a match, the popup will
roll up. However, at this point, focus is shifted back to the term from
which the command was entered, and you have to manually put focus back
on the dialog to complete typing the URL.
1) start mozilla "./mozilla &"
2) do open web location; enter 'http://www.mozilla.org'; hit enter
3) do open web location; enter 'http://www.mozillazine.org'; hit enter
4) type './mozilla -remote "openurl()"' in terminal window
5) Start typing (slowly) 'http://www.mozillasomething
Focus will jump back to the terminal window.
(I'm running rh6.1/gnome/enlightenment with Focus follows Mouse Pointer).
