1896128 - Pressing "Home" doesn't bring you to the start of the URL when browser.urlbar.trimHttps = true

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect, P3)

Description

[Vincent]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:127.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/127.0

Steps to reproduce:

1. Set browser.urlbar.trimHttps = true.
2. Visit https://example.com/
3. Press Ctrl+L, then Home, then type !wayback and press Enter

Actual results:

The query https://!wayback example.com/ is sent to your default search engine.

Expected results:

The query !wayback https://example.com/ is sent to your default search engine.

(In my case DuckDuckGo, which would load the URL in the archive.org Wayback machine - I actually have muscle memory that does this and is now broken 😅.)
