open tab in different containers with location bar pre-filled

See original GitHub issue

Steps to reproduce:

  • Open a new tab
  • Enter https://duckduckgo.com, but do not press enter
  • Change the tab to a different container

Expected result: https://duckduckgo.com remains in the omnibar Actual result: Omnibar is cleared

I know this is technically the intended behavior right now, but it feels like a bug to me.

regarding mozilla adding this functionality: I would be surprised as there will be a lot of unanswered problems for a (I think) niche problem:

  • how will users discover the feature
  • how to prevent, that while users are typing, web-extensions will alter the text
  • etc. … I could be wrong though

regarding the solution with the different context menu: I will play around with this, though I would not see it a high priority right now.

Thanks

changing tabs to a different container is now not part of conex anymore but a Firefox feature … closing this bug as I can’t fix it (firefox has the same behavior though)
