Yes, it's true that any change has the potential to interrupt current users. But, if FF could detect when to append ".com" vs. when to open a new tab based on the entered URL, then this is a very minimal change for current users.
The current behavior of ".com-completion in same tab, when applicable" could remain in place. The only behavior that's actually needs to change is from the existing "cmd-enter does nothing" to "cmd-enter opens in new tab" when .com-completion is not applicable. Furthermore, with the proliferation of TLDs, it seems like .com-completion has become less useful. Adding a config to change this behavior doesn't seem like an unreasonable approach either. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66566 Title: Inconsistent shortcuts for new tab To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/66566/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
