Previous versions had a tool to automatically fill out a form, but 5 doesn't have that feature. Why?

I want the feature that allows you to provide personal information (name, address, etc.) and to then automatically fill out a form by clicking on that feature. I don't see that in 5.

That has never been a standard part of Firefox. Form autocomplete works field by field, not all at once like with a true "autofill" feature.

Any chance you were using the Google Toolbar AutoFill feature?
