cursor position/attention goes to bookmarks bar instead of address bar

In version 56.0.2 the cursor appears in the bookmarks sidebar instead of the address bar upon starting a new window/blank page. This is different from previous behavior (e.g., Firefox 52 ESR). There could be a reason for the change, but I feel this is a regression in usability as it changes workflow and requires more keystrokes.

Tested on CentOS 7.

Can this change be reverted?

Hi  ! We've had many reports about this and people find it very annoying. This issue should be fixed when Firefox 57 is released - for now, would you just close the bookmarks sidebar  ? When you want to open it again : Ctrl + B

Would that work for you till this is fixed  ?
