Put cursor in the address bar 3. Start editing the URL, select some characters 4. Ctrl-Tab to switch to another tab 5. Ctrl-Tab to switch back to the first tab Actual results: For step #5 the focus is in the address bar and *all* text is selected, making it hard to continue editing the URL. This is the result on Ubuntu Linux. Windows version has similar issue: the selection disappears and cursor is placed at the end of address bar regardless of its position in step #3. Expected results: For step #5 the focus is in the address bar and cursor and selection is in the same state as after step #3.
