ATM it's impossible to have reload button on keyboard. We can change enter key on keyboard using InputMethod.extensions, but to change icon we need to unfocus the textfield and focus it again, because enter button doesn't change in realtime.

We need to change it while user is typing, because we want to switch between reload button (when there is the same address) and enter button.

I opened bug 1384278 against keyboard about this
