User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0 Build ID: 20150513174244 Steps to reproduce: [1] Mouse click in the search box to move the focus there. [2] Put down the mouse so that you can start typing in the search box. Enter search terms. [3] In the process of taking your hand off the mouse, it moves slightly, and the mouse cursor hovers over one of the other (non-default) search providers. [4] Press Enter to begin the search. Actual results: Instead of searching with the default provider, Firefox searches with the provider being hovered over. Expected results: The default search provider should be used to perform the search. I would prefer not to have to keep track of where my mouse is pointing even when I'm not using it.
Reproduced, The OneOffButtons UI is very bad design.
