"Automatic Mode" interferes with Firefox's builtin Address Bar tab search feature ("%" search term)

Normally Firefox allows the user to search any open tabs across all windows by typing "% " in the Address Bar, then switch to it by selecting the result in the list.</p> <p>Turning on "Automatic Mode" interferes with this, even though it shouldn't. It looks as though using "%" will only search tabs also from in the currently-active-tab's container group, making the feature significantly less useful.</p> </div> </div> <div class="comment"> <div class="user"> <a rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://github.com/stoically"><img src="https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/29637501?v=4" />stoically</a> commented <strong> 4 years ago</strong> </div> <div class="markdown-body"> <p>Yeah, that's unfortunate, please see: <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1500991">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1500991</a></p> </div> </div> <div class="page-bar-simple"> </div> <div class="footer"> <ul class="body"> <li>© <script> document.write(new Date().getFullYear()) </script> Githubissues.</li> <li>Githubissues is a development platform for aggregating issues.</li> </ul> </div> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/jquery@3.5.1/dist/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="/githubissues/assets/js.js"></script> <script src="/githubissues/assets/markdown.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highlightjs/cdn-release@11.4.0/build/highlight.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highlightjs/cdn-release@11.4.0/build/languages/go.min.js"></script> <script> hljs.highlightAll(); </script> </body> </html>
