Details
Since bug 480350 landed, the list of loaded URLs is included in the autocomplete results. URLs which are in history (or bookmarks) and also loaded in a tab show up twice in the autocomplete results. This often causes some duplicated entries in the dropdown (one with the URL, one with "switch to tab") and makes the URL bar harder to use for me: I'm quite used to loading URLs by typing phrases into the location bar and selecting the first/second/third URL in the list. This usage pattern breaks when entries are duplicated in the list, depending on which URLs I have currently open in other tabs (i.e. it is not predictable what the second or third item in the dropdown will be).
