How can I disable auto-toggle of search in Firefox when hitting a key?
I have this behavior on Firefox (Linux) that is pretty annoying.
If I'm not on a text field, and I hit a key, the search on the page toggle, and everything I write is in that search bar.
The issue arise when I'm in the chat, but thought it had the focus. Starting hitting the keys make a search, which move the chat to the corresponding search...
I've looked at about:config but haven't found a clear name for a key that would disable this behavior.
Thanks.
