Steps to reproduce:
I often need to go into about:preferences and about:config to turn various accessibility fixes on and off.
Actual results:
If I type preferences into the url bar, a bunch of sites I've visited appear as suggestions, but about:preferences does not.
If I type config, about:config does not.
Expected results:
about:preferences should appear if users type preferences.
about:config should appear if users type config.
It'd cut down on extra typing or extra menu-mousing.

You can start typing about:preferences instead. Entirely internal pages should not come up as suggestions.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Address Bar' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
Which doesn't turn up until I reach about:p
I doubt I'm the only one who has to use these settings several times every day.

This could be a good match for the QuickActions feature we're working on, rather than a normal match.
It may be available in the future as it's stil la work in progress.

Preferences is user facing and will now show up as an action when the user types "pref"
about:config is more internal and we warn users about making any changes there so I dont think we want to advertise it better
