Title:
Regression: Firefox enforces middlemouse.contentLoadURL to false.
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When I've upgraded my ubuntu and got firefox 7.0.1 I've unexpectedly
lost the possibility to paste URLs directly into browser window. That
possibility is more than very useful as I don't have to do lot of
things - exactly to load some URL into current non-empty tab I have
to: 1) select URL; 2) press Ctrl+C; 3) click on URL line in browser;
4) select all in there; 5) press Ctrl+V; 6) press 'Enter'. With that
possibility it's very-very simple: 1) select URL; 2) middle-click in
browser window - yes, that's all. And now I cannot do that because
config variable middlemouse.contentLoadURL changed it's default to
false (and I think it's ubuntu-specific default, the same version
7.0.1 in debian-testing have it true as it always been) and it's even
worse - even when I open about:config and toggle it, it works as it
should be but as soon I close firefox and start it again that value is
reset to false again and that means I should set it manually each time
I start firefox! I've fixed that weird bug by downgrading firefox to
version from natty. Fix it back, please!
