Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1671815

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, enhancement)

Description

[RagglenLove]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:78.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/78.0

Expected results:

Back then, when you did a search with Wikipedia for example, all you had to do was type your search query on the address bar, click on the Wikipedia icon and it takes you to your desired Wikipedia article, but now with FF90, you have to press shift+click on the Wikipedia icon to get to your desired Wikipedia article.

This userscript by aveyo (https://www.reddit.com/user/aveyo/) brings back single-click search functionality to FF90: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/ls0ffy/oneoffsrefresh_redux_single_click_search_icons_in/

These are the userscripts:

const { XPCOMUtils } = Components.utils.import('resource://gre/modules/XPCOMUtils.jsm');
XPCOMUtils.defineLazyModuleGetters(this, { Services: "resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm" });
function UserChromeJS() { Services.obs.addObserver(this, 'chrome-document-global-created', false); }
UserChromeJS.prototype = { observe:function(s) {s.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', this, {once:true});}, handleEvent:function(evt) {
