URL bar often mistakes searches for domains

[K4sum1]

For example if I want to search the name of a Minecraft mod, I click rename, copy the selected name, and paste it in my browser. For this example, I will use UniversalTweaks-1.12.2-1.10.0. If I copy and paste this into Mypal, instead of searching it, it treats it like a website, and it immediately fails to connect because it's not a proper domain. Modern versions of Firefox don't have this issue.

Since I know it is upstream I figured I might as well see where it stopped being an issue. In 78a1, this change was pushed which fixes the problem. https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/432809e7954380f8de19bf4104dde1a7d9aab7f7

However it mentions "With recent fixes that can properly identify whitelisted domains". I'm not sure if 68 has those, so it might be a good idea to see what all is relevant.

Cure? Use search box for searches and address box for addresses*? Maybe I'm missing something ... help me out here.

  (* Until the 2nd coming happens.)

I like to just throw my cursor to one bar. I don't want to have to use two bars.

@Feodor2 take another look at this issue, it's not related to 101. It's an upstream issue.

So you have set keyword thing and still get the error, is it?

Yeah, I even got the information in the comment above (https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/issues/410#issuecomment-2010757872) testing stock Firefox alpha releases. It's an old Firefox issue.

@Feodor2 Can you reopen please. I might try fixing this stuff once I start trying to build Mypal.
