I guess it's a regression fix (perhaps Windows-specific) where it used to work and broke at some recent version? Because the feature as described is indeed nothing new in Firefox.
From the linked bug:
> Firefox now supports adding your own custom search engines. Just right-click a search field of a supported website and select Add Search Engine, or go to Settings > Search > Add (below the search shortcuts table) to manually enter a search URL.

- wkat4242 1y agoAh I see yes, thank you! Must be a regression fix then indeed. Edit: No, after reading it more deeply it seems to be some new UI to manually type the search URL instead of using OpenSearch for it.
- tfehring 1y agoNot Windows-specific, I had to go through about:config to enable this on MacOS as of late last year.
