When changing tabs and wanting to visit github.com, I clicked in the url bar and found the first character was deleted.

Expected behavior:
Whatever I type in the url bar should be respected.

  1. Give focus to tab A

  4. Quickly type a url like github.com

this may be because the URLbar is getting selected after the first character is typed, so whatever is typed afterward overrides the initial character. just a thought since i'm having a hard time repro-ing it but have seen it come up.
