Details

The great usability feature of searching direct from urlbar with an "enter" only is broken. I used to be able to fill in some words in the urlbar - hit enter - and Seamonkey would search Google. That still worked in my previous build, dated march '06. But it no longer works in Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060509 SeaMonkey/1.5a Instead I now get an "invalid URL" dialogue box. It's a great usability feature and much faster than having to let go of the keyboard first, grab the mouse, navigate to the "search" button and click that one, thus severity major - this bites me 20 times a day.
Summary: searching direct from urlbar broken → searching direct from urlbar broken ("enter" just triggers "invalid url")
