** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
  
  For the past few weeks, builds of Firefox 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7 have
  exhibited a behavior where the autocomplete of the so-called awesome bar
  will only work sporadically.
  
  There are some times where the autocomplete will not work at all and
  other times when it will appear for a few milliseconds after typing a
  letter before disappearing.
  
  I haven't been able to pin-point what causes this, but I have found that
  restarting the browser resolves the issue until it occurs again.
  
  This doesn't happen very often, but at least a few times each day.
  
  Reproducible: Sometimes
  ==========
+ SRU:
+ 
+ This bug affects all users using compiz and Firefox.
+ Patch is taken from the compiz 0.8.8 branch from upstream cgit. Patch has also been port-forwarded to 0.9 branch and is available in latest Natty compiz package.
+ 
+ TestCase:
+ 
+ With current stock Ubuntu compiz packages:
+ 1- When Firefox is open; allow screensaver to kick-in (or resume from suspend) and then start using Firefox
+ 2- Notice Awesome bar does not auto-complete with suggestions(firefox 3.6) and bookmarks menu, context menu are completely unusable(Firefox 4).
+ 
+ Install compiz package from -proposed:
+ Awesome bar, Context menu, bookmarks menus all work normally
+ 
+ Regression potential:
+ None ( maybe users notice more awesomeness of Firefox 4?)
