Details

As you type a URL into the URL field a search entry is simultaneously built so
you can hit TAB and search for the thing you just typed.  In previous builds
this search field kept up with whatever you were typing.  Now the search field
appears to always be one keystroke behind.

This means if you are looking for "antique lampshades denver" on Google (for
instance), you'll type that, hit TAB then Enter and end up looking for "antique
lampshades denve" since the search panel missed the last keystroke (the "r" in
"denver").  You can try this out and watch the search entry incorrectly build
itself as you type.

As a workaround, hit a space after everything you type in the URL field so the
last keystroke will be entered into the search input field.  Another workaround
is to enable and use the "Search" button instead of using TAB-Enter.  But
TAB-Enter is far more convenient (in my opinion).
