Bug Description
when visiting a webpage that redirects to a different webpage the displayed URL in the browser location field does not change to match the new url

I’m not sure what you mean? I’m visiting e.g. http:// pad.lv/ 1, just after validating the URL the address bar displays "pad.lv" (it shortens the URL to the domain name only), then a redirect to https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +bug/1 happens, and the address bar correctly displays "bugs.launchpad .net". So it appears that the URL is updated in the address bar upon redirect.
Can you detail the steps to reproduce the issue, what you expect to see, and what happens instead?
