Steps to reproduce:

Type something into the address bar so that it autocompletes. Then press the Right Arrow key to go to the end of the line.

Example: if you've visited github.com/mozilla before, typing 'gi' should autocomplete to 'github.com/'

Actual results:

The dropdown list of URLs closes.

Expected results:

It should stay open, and update to match the new URL. For example if I typed 'g' I might have had google.com and github.com listed in the dropdown. After pressing Right, I should now have everything under 'github.com/' in the dropdown, like 'github.com/mozilla' etc.

Having the dropdown stay open really helps with remembering exactly which URLs I've visited most often and aids autocomplete.

Hi, we're working on some big improvements on the URL bar, and this is one of the things we've already fixed.

I can't yet say when it will be released, but it is definitely on its way.
