Is it possible to preselect in Firefox suggest as it is the case for normal search ?

When I search something in the address bar, the first result is always pre-selected, meaning that if I hit "enter" it will be issued as can be seen in the first attached screenshot.

Whereas, when I search for tabs or actions it is not the case meaning I have to hit "tab" to first select the first result before being able to "enter", as seen in the second screenshot.

Is there a way to get the first behavior in the second case?

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, Firefox Suggest and the tab/action search don’t share exactly the same selection logic. In normal web searches the top result is auto-highlighted, but in tab/action search you need to press Tab once to focus it. That’s by design right now.

Okay so there is no way to have the top result auto-highlighted.
