Omnibox not highlighted when new tab opened

Reported by lmannin...@gmail.com, Sep 21 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.91 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open new tab
2. Start typing

What is the expected behavior?
Omnibox is cleared with what you are typing

What went wrong?
Omnibox gets prepended with text

Did this work before? Yes Chrome 60

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.91  Channel: stable
OS Version: Fedora 25
Flash Version: 

It's become extremely frustrating to use Chrome since I updated today. Normally I open a tab and just start typing but that's causing me to have a lot of bad searches. For instance, I normally just type "y" and hit enter to go to youtube, not I get to a Google search for "yhttps://google.com..."

Yes, this is fixed, but was not considered severe enough for merge to 61.

lmanning, this only happens when you have some sort of custom new-tab-page. Removing it should restore your "y<enter>" to go to YouTube.
Thanks for the info. This fix will show up in Chrome 62?

Yes, it's already there.
