Last letter omitted from shortcut search. #116

When searching with a search engine shortcut, the last letter of a search string is not transmitted to the search provider.

This issue exists for a long time now. The only fix is to disable the instant page loading feature or to add a whitespace after each search query, until the developer(s) will provide a fix

Unfortunately due to e10s most of the api used by Instantfox have been changed, and adapting Instantfox to the new api requires either someone who is already familiar with new api, or cutting down most of features to simplify the addon or huge time investment. But considering that full featured firefox addons are going to be deprecated spending time on them doesn't seem like a very good idea
