I think when the page has no title?

But https://github.com/notifications has the title "Notifications" and it is displayed until I click the bell.

I’ve created a Plunker to demonstrate the issue, the problem arises with links that point to the page that we are already on (anchor links are fine though),

FYI reloading with the button next to the URL bar does work.

One observation is when this happen is the URL bar doesn't auto hide. Also this happens when the Block script is enabled/disabled. (0.11.2 Dev Beta 2 install)

Is this diff from 0.11.1?

Is this diff from 0.11.1?

I’m still using 0.11.1, it’s the same.

The absolute link in @neeklamy's Plunker repros the bug for me on Ubuntu 14.04 for recent master (commit 9213bf0).

The easiest way to reproduce this:

1. Open devtool
2. location.reload()

This seems to have been fixed with #3202. I cannot confirm this issue in 0.11.6 beta2, so closing.
