Details

Steps to Reproduce: 1. With Firefox for Android Nightly 47.0a1 (2016-01-27) 2. In the URI bar, enter 'about:config?filter=webkit' Expected: There should be preferences with the string webkit only (as on desktop) Actual: The full list is still here. Why it is useful, once the filter is active, you can bookmark it to have a quick access to a specific preference that you need to change often, instead of typing again and again. Also note that when you search for webkit in the search form and you open a new tab, do something and come back to this tab. The search context has been lost, which is also annoying. Related I guess.
