The thread is the Dev 4.0.237.0 announcement:

which mentions the experiment bug:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26140

which also has this in the comment:
"We are trying an experiment where we leave the edit control alone for

matching Firefox.  If you don't like this behavior, please leave a
comment indicating why."
