Alright, so this issue is separate from the one I linked.

In my testing, when focusing the path in the location bar that path visibly
contains the protocol (i.e. "stfp:" in sftp://host:port/home/user) initially.
The confusing part is probably that that protocol is still used even after
clearing the text input.

So I assume the best solution here would be to show the protocol dropdown
button in front of the path not only when the text input is completely empty,
but also if the protocol scheme (in this case "sftp") has been deleted from the
text input field since the last time the url has been commited (e.g. by
pressing "Enter").
