OK quoting myself. Le 27 oct. 2014 à 08:08, Karl Dubost <kdub...@mozilla.com> a écrit : > 1. experience-wise it is annoying to have the flickering of icons for each > letter typed.

Is there a possibility to put that off and not having > whatever you type up there to be sent somewhere the user does not expect? The nature of concerns here is two folds: 1. Can users deactivate everything.me ? Users can change the default search engine on Firefox Desktop. Users have the choice to never use or use only $SEARCH_ENGINE_BRAND if they wish so. That's a cool feature: Have the choice. 2. Change of expectations. A user which was using Firefox OS 1.0 to 1.3 could use the search feature of everything.me OR the browser URL bar. Now the user has only one bar which is sending data to a service which he/she didn't opt-in. (A bit what is happening with Spotlight on 10.10) The issue is never to propose a feature. That is cool if people need it. The issue is more: 1. To make the feature without the choice to not deactivate it. 2. To change expectations on the sharing perimeter of a feature. Does it make more sense? ^_^ (maybe my French is getting into the way). -- Karl Dubost, Mozilla http://www.la-grange.net/karl/moz _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
