Notes

• We have given this issue a suggested S3 severity because it is not a blocker in relation to the whole browser.
• Feature-wise, we consider this to be a S1 issue, since it’s blocking the Recent Searches feature.
• Note that keywords are recorded in the browser’s database, but they are not displayed accordingly in the ‘Recent searches’ section.

:oardelean, if you think that's a regression, could you try to find a regression range using for example mozregression?
