Bug Description

1) On the desktop, open a new tab
2) Type example.com but don't press enter yet
3) Switch to another tab and then switch back to your new tab

The text you entered is now gone! But it's not so unusual that you would be manually entering a url, but forgot how to spell it, so you go to another tab to look at the word again. Or some similar situation.

Ideally it could keep that text around in memory.
