Well... that was a nightmare. I think I got up to 30 dots before things went non-responsive. I tapped Esc a couple times and after about 30 seconds I got Firefox back.

Perhaps this is related to the Places database lookup function that populates bookmarks and history into the drop-down.

Perhaps rather than experiment with this further, you might file a bug?

And meanwhile, don't type that. ;-)

When you file the bug, remember to state everything about the problem. And post its link so we can look it over.
