Does Firefox still support automatically updating the opensearch XML description? MDN still mentions this feature: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/XML/Guides/OpenSearch#supporting_automatic_updates_for_opensearch_description

Also, in about:config, there used to be an "browser.search.update.interval" entry that specified the update interval. I can't find it anymore.

If this isn’t the right place to ask, could you point me in the right direction?
