Forward slash will open quick find #125

When i try to write a / in the download directory this quick find will open in Firefox 70.0 image

and it makes it impossible to write it, so now i have to copy it to the clipboard and paste it.

Unfortunately, this doesn't seem like it's something I can fix on my side. It seems fixed in nightly, so we can wait for the next version to land.

As a workaround for Firefox 71, you can disable the quick find in about:config by setting accessibility.typeaheadfind.manual to false.

Dev note: I've tried preventDefault, stopPropagation, stopImmediatePropagation, and returning null on the keydown event. Doesn't seem to prevent the / key from bringing up the quick find bar.

Alternatively, you can open the options page in a new tab
