Details
Our solution to persisting the search term in the Urlbar involves referencing the originalURI
, which doesn't get updated if a website updates its location via the History API.
This can result in a tab always showing the search term in the Urlbar if a user conducts a search with their default search engine and then navigates to subpages (i.e. another page, Images search) from within content.
If they try loading these subpage URLs they won't see the search term in the Urlbar.

This is addressed by :klubana's work (e.g. Bug 1902330) on Persisted Search where via Remote Settings, we can detect page changes by observing specific keys/values.
