Unwanted character in new tab's address bar

Reported by vitaly.c...@gmail.com, Apr 10 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/57.0.2987.98 Chrome/57.0.2987.98 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Switch keybord layout to russian (probably, any non-english) 
2. Click somewhere on web page (focus should NOT be in address bar)
3. Press Ctrl+T to open new tab

What is the expected behavior?
New tab should open, and focus should be in _empty_ address bar

What went wrong?
New tab opens, but in address bar there is already letter е (in russian). Which is placed on the same keyboard key as t.

Did this work before? Yes 54 or 55

Chrome version: 57.0.2987.98  Channel: stable
OS Version: Ubuntu 16.04
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 11.2 r999

Incorrect behavior only on russian layout (probably, any non-english) and only if focus before pressing Ctrl+T is not on address bar.
I've noticed it in Chromium 56, and 57 also has this bug.

Unable to reproduce issue.  I'm using Colemak keyboard layout, the key labelled as 'f' acts as 't'.  I tried:
57.0.2987.133 (Official Build) (64-bit)
58.0.3029.54 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)
59.0.3063.4 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
Hello! I've tested it with Colemak layout, and it seems ok, as well as with Polish. But I've also tested with Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Thai layouts and with all of them there is bug. 'е' in Russian and Ukrainian, 'ш' in Bulgarian, and 'ะ' in Thai appears in address bar. So it seems like the problem is on layouts where symbol on key, which is on hotkey for new tab, is non-latinic. So maybe it is connected with charset or something.

Could you please try on one of that problem layouts?
Also i've noticed that problem is relevant for on screen keyboard too. So maybe i can record video, if it is needed.
I have this problem on two machines, desktop with Ubuntu 16.04 and laptop with Ubuntu 16.10. On both it is Chromium 57 64-bit.

Thank you.

chongz@ - Could you please check and merge the fix to M57 if it is a valid candidate.

Adding label ReleaseBlock-Stable as it seems to be a recent regression.

Thanks...!!

@krajshree IIUC M57 is already in stable and M58 is about to be released, do you think it's still worth the risk of merging it?

Also I don't quite understand what does the label 'ReleaseBlock-Stable' mean?

Thanks Rajshree for reverse bisecting. 

We do not have any planned releases M57 and the issue not reproducible in latest M58. We do not need to action here.Closing for now.
