Hi, as some of you have read in the tech news all around, the upcoming firefox 57 is quite a 'reboot' of the user experience (https://hacks.mozilla.org/2017/09/firefox-quantum-developer-edition-fastest-firefox-ever/), with:
- ui change (again) wrt tabs and toolbars look. Like it or not... - much faster rendering (multiprocess by default - and using the rust-based stylo css engine) - deprecation of 'legacy' extensions - you'll have to deal with it, your beloved extension unmaintained since 5+ years will stop working, nothing you can do about that. - and something which has been brought to my attention, the (somewhat hidden imo) feature of 'pasting an url anywhere in the firefox window would open it in a new tab' has been disabled by default, because it was confusing. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366945 for rationale, and if you dont like that, stop ranting and toggle middlemouse.contentLoadURL, or paste the url where it belongs, in the addressbra. No, i wont change the defaults :) That said, we're at beta14, and ETA is in ~10 days iirc. Landry
