Status
Overview
- Landed on Nightly:
- First Landed on Nightly 51.0a1: link on 08.04.2016
- At merge with Aurora, the feature was not sign-off to Aurora due to a large number of bugs opened on this feature. Feature remains disabled on Aurora 51 and enabled on Nightly 52
- The feature also missed the Firefox 52, 53 and 54 releases, due to the large number of issues, work was re-prioritized in Bug 1337003
Risk analysis
- Awesomebar functionality/performance might be affected by One-off searches buttons from Awesomebar.
