Hi r/firefox 👋,

The address bar is one of the most prominent areas in any browser, and Firefox is no exception. Understanding its importance, the Firefox team has been working on a set of complementary features designed to improve discoverability and security of the Firefox address bar.

With this set of features landing in Firefox Beta 135, we need your expertise to help us test these enhancements by participating in this campaign, which will be live on January 9th!

The top 5 contributors will each receive a $50 voucher to shop at Mozilla’s swag stores as a thank-you for your efforts.

Have any questions about this campaign? Join us on Matrix or comment down below!

Yeah the search persistence is the only one that raised an eyebrow for me. I think it's cool as long as is easy and obvious to get url if you want.

The @keyword thing seems cool to me. I use the various shortcuts (random symbols) for those occasionally and have to relook them up so a slightly longer but easier to remember alternative seems like it would be nice.
