I am using Firefox Developer Edition 57 and have search bar integrated with address bar like Chrome has. I like this feature, but have problems when I want to search for something that is or looks like URL; for example today I wanted to search for "mean.js".
In Chrome when I hit CTRL + K
on keyboard (that's the way I invoke the search all of the time) ?
is added in the very beginning of the address bar, which marks that whatever I enter is a search term. That way even if I enter a URL (like "mean.js") Chrome searches for that URL in the default search engine, instead of opening that URL. It seems it doesn't work that way in Firefox (even when I add ?
manually).
Can I somehow force the Firefox to search for URL instead of opening it, when searching from the address bar?

at the front'<url>
instead of just<url>
