The way Firefox works is that entering a URL in the Location Bar opens the page in the currently selected tab, and entering a search in the Search Bar works the same way. In both cases, however, you can display the resulting page in a new tab by pressing Alt+Enter instead of Enter.
I would like to reverse this behaviour for both situations. That is, I want to make the default behaviour to be displaying the resulting page in a new tab. (Conversely, pressing Alt+Enter would display the result in the currently selected tab.)
I’ve changed the behaviour for the Search Bar by entering “about:config” then changing “browser.search.openintab” to True, but I can’t work out how to do it for the Location panel.
Does anyone know if/how it can be done?
