feature request - rollback recent update with search engine selection after starting typing using the address bar
With respect to this paragraph in this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/search-firefox-address-bar?as=u#w_use-a-different-search
The recent updates are worsening the usability.
Before the update, I used to do the following steps in order to search anything using an alternative search engine:
- press CTRL + L to focus the address bar
- type my search query
- press ALT + ↓ until the desired search engine is selected
- press ENTER to submit the query
Now, after the update, an additional step has been introduced
- press CTRL + L to focus the address bar
- type my search query
- press ALT + ↓ until the desired search engine is selected
- press ENTER to confirm the selection of the search engine
- press ENTER to submit the query
Yeah, it's just a single keypress more, but multiply it by a couple of hundreds times a day I need to do that, and you will get why I'm taking the time to report it.
Please get rid of step 4

At step 4 you can hold Shift and press Enter to use the selected search engine and submit the query, so you do not need step 5 anymore.
