Update : This feature is now available by default in Firefox.
This should say “delete, paste, and go” not just “paste and go”!
sure it’s available by default now…
too bad when you copy something to add to the address bar,
you click the spot you want it at,
then click paste and go,
IT DELETES EVERYTHING IN THE ADDRESS BAR AND ONLY HAS WHAT YOU PASTED.
This should say “delete, paste, and go” not just “paste and go”!
