Title:
browser.urlbar.autofill negates Location bar suggest preference
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Starting with a blank profile (all files deleted) I load Firefox.
I make the following settings on the Preferences Privacy tab
History - Use custom settings for history
[X] Remember my browsing history
[X] Accept cookies from sites
[ ] Accept third party cookies
Keep until I close Firefox
[X] Clear history when Firefox Closes
[Settings] do not clear Browsing history, Saved Passwords, Site
Preferences; clear all other items
Location Bar
When using the location bar, suggest: [History]
I then type in a couple of URLs, close and restart Firefox. As I type
the first couple of letters of one of the URLs which I had accessed
and which are in history, the complete URL is displayed as a choice in
the Awesome bar ( I think that is what it is called). This is how I
expect Firfox to work.
I then import a selection of bookmarks from an HTML file. These were
exported from another Firefox profile. I again type the first couple
of letters of one of the URLs which I had accessed and which are in
history. Just as I described above, the complete URL is displayed. So
far, so good.
Per the Firefox documentation at
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Inline_autocomplete I change
browser.urlbar.autoFill to true.
Firefox now presents URL choices from the bookmarks in addition to
history even though the Privacy preference still indicates the
suggestions should only come from history. If I change the preference
to When using the location bar, suggest: [Nothing] I am still
presented with choices from the bookmarks.
This would seem to be incorrect behaviour. Suggestions from bookmarks
should NOT be presented.
