Autocorrect with spacebar doesn't work while typing in Firefox or Brave browsers' address bars. #344

While using the latest 0.1.23.1 version (also the version prior) of the FUTO Keyboard I am unable to get autocorrect to function automatically with spacebar while typing in web browser address bars (tested with Firefox and Brave). I have verified that the functionality works as expected outside of the Brave and Firefox web browser's address bars. This functionality exists in GBoard and Swiftkey and appears to be the expected behavior.

I don't get autocorrect in address bars when testing with Gboard, are you sure? Generally URL bars are a place where you don't want autocorrect to interfere and potentially take you to the wrong website. The Chromium address bar actually explicitly requests suggestions to not even be shown

You're right, GBoard doesn't do that either. It appears to just be a SwiftKey thing. I'm not referring to typing in a web address so much as when typing a search query. I think if there's a space maybe it could switch back on autocorrect as it is likely a search query at that point? Not sure how practical that would be. It looks like SwiftKey is doing autocorrect if someone hits the SpaceBar.
