with autocomplete turned on, I can no longer type "https" as the beginning of a URL
I have used autocomplete in previous versions of Firefox and I was able to type "https" at the start of a URL, but now since I don't have any save domains that start with "h", autocomplete imediatley changes the "h" to a "p" which makes it impossible for me to type "https". I understand that I can hit "esc" after typing each letter, but that is crazy.
I assume that Firefox now ignores the protocol portion of bookmarks and that is why this is happening.

You can set the pref browser.urlbar.trimURLs to false on the about:config page to see the http: protocol.

Hi Montagar,
You may try this addon: https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere
It's from the Electronic Frontier Foundation and automatically switches to https:// on certain websites.
