Attaching video demonstrating the issue, courtesy of Bill. It’s clearly the new tab view that is incorrectly being overlaid on top of the actual webview. This apparently happens when clicking a link that opens a new tab, although there must be another factor at play because I haven’t been able to observe the issue myself.

All pages are rendering fine. Then when I click on a link in a page that opens a new tab, I get the new tab but the page is not displayed. It just displays the Top Sites, Bookmarks placeholder page. The url field has the correct url and the tab title is correct but the contents of the page never renders. Even when I press reload. What is worse, every tab then has this problem. None will show the page content, all show the Top Sites, Bookmark page.
