Committing an address dropped the field back to the url of the page you
were leaving, so typing baby.com over google.com flashed google.com back
before baby.com arrived — and nothing said a load was underway.
The address you asked for now stays in the field until the page actually
lands somewhere (a redirect supersedes it, as it should), and progress
spins inside the field beside it. The pane owns that loading state from
the moment it accepts the address, because the reach probe it runs first
delays did-start-loading.
