More sloppiness in Internet Explorer for Mac OS X

The picture below shows what happens when:
- you start typing a URL in the Address Bar
- your typing causes Explorer to display a list of possible options to automatically complete your entry
- instead of selecting one of the options right away, you move the browser window to a different location
Needless to say, if you do the exact same thing in Safari, the list of options for automatic completion disappears.
A “normal” software company would fix such obvious visual glitches in no time. With Microsoft, such interface crimes go unpunished for years. (This particular problem has been around forever.)
