[Bug 572084] [NEW] Awesomebar drop-down sporadically stops working

[Aaron Kavlie]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

The location bar history drop-down (colloquially the "Awesomebar") stops
working from time to time, such that it doesn't drop down to make any
suggestions for whatever is typed in the location bar. This is very
sporadic, and there is no obvious cause.

At the same time, a second problem often corresponds with this: there's
a bit of latency on characters typed in, and if typing fast, it actually
misses some characters entirely, as if it cannot keep up. I'm not sure
if that's related, or just a coincidence.
