How can I show search querys in the URL bar instead of URLs? (and for all search engines, including custom ones) (lemmy.world)

I often do searches with multiple search engines and extras with the same query but with site:reddit.com added at the end. Being able to press CMD L to focus the URL bar, and then CMD C with all the text selected would make things a lot faster. This was added months ago to Firefox but it looks like it was removed now.

I was able to enable it on stable by toggling browser.urlbar.showSearchTerms.featureGate

Edit: Nevermind, it doesn't work for custom engines, which suggests that it's a separate implementation from mobile?

It's working with Kagi for me; added it as a custom engine as their docs recommend.
