When you use Google's Translator, this application automatically adds a link to Firefox's history each time you modify even a tiny bit of what you are translating.
This means that sometimes, you can add 1,000 links within a day when you incrementally translate a piece of text, what is the default way to do.
Today, two minutes of that work generated 40 links!
Example of a typical link:
https://translate.google.com/?hl=de&sl=de&tl=en&text=Manchmal%20ist%20es%20wichtiger%2C%20etwas%20zu%20schenken%2C%20als%20wie%20es%20beim%20Adressaten%20ankommt&op=translate
And that was only a small piece of text!
In my history, there are in between 50,000 of these, despite regularly deleting many of them.
Even on a relatively fast notebook, deleting 1,000 links in the history takes minutes.
I posted the problem to Google Translate as a feedback many times, but they never answered.
Is there a possibility within Firefox to selectively get rid of this permanent garbage?
That would be wonderful.
