WHY does the cursor go to the address when I type in the search bar of the home screen. This is sooooo (*$%^#) ANNOYING. STOP messing with what works. Dont need to reinvent the wheel.

There is a preference for this but it does take a bit of work to find it because of the unusual name:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste handoff and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar preference to switch the value from true to false

Success?
