Text field: autocompletion: a menu with a history of typed phrases
In some multi-line text fields:
- when I begin typing, a menu drops down or pops up.
Each menu option is a previously-typed phrase, not necessarily recent.
Is this a hidden feature of Firefox?
It's very recently evident with at least three websites:
- old Reddit, pictured at https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@grahamperrin/117120940452711262
- Mastodon, pictured here and at https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@grahamperrin/117124332180878790
- here – support.mozilla.org – when I began typing.
Reproducible with multiple Firefox profiles. Also evident with Firefox in safe mode.
Not evident with Microsoft Edge.
At a glance, I don't see anything relevant in release notes – https://www.firefox.com/en-GB/firefox/154.0/releasenotes/
It's possible that the feature was inadvertently enabled in response to an unknown combination of keys (shortcuts) as described in Mastodon.
