Security: Firefox for mobile phishing and fake Web site

Firefox for Android mobile load the page title on the URL space.

If a fake site Web put the name of the page as the user of the website address can be confused.

Suppose that the Bank Web site is www.mybank6567.ext

The fake site may be fakebank.ext this Web site can have a SSL and the name of the page on mybank65.ext can be the url of the originating bank.

If the user opens hidden mobile Firefox link can be easily confused.

Look try to open this URL from Firefox Mobile on Android https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/405 you must be logged on github.com after loading the page, if you see on top, it seems to be on the right site of the Bank, there is the simbol of lockpad, and the address that you read is the address of the Bank. The inexperienced user can be confusing.

Oh, I'm sorry.
It is very important issue and I hope that security of Firefox will be fixxed as soon as possible.

Bad image for Firefox in this issue. Very dangerous.
So here I end my question.

Sorry, but I'm not registered in bugzilla and I won't record because I don't want to make my email address public so I hope more people continue to insist on bugzilla for this security problem.
I stop my discussion here, I alerted on the security issue on Firefox Mobile.
