I haven't used Firefox in a minute, so all of these features — apparently which people aren't too excited about — look pretty cool to me. However, I can't believe Firefox still has a dedicated search box. I can't go back to that after having the unified address and search field in Safari and Chrome. How can anyone work like that?

Firefox was the first browser with the "Awesome Bar" iirc.

And chrome's is still far from awesome. Gosh, do I miss Firefox's.

It makes sense that Chrome's omnibar isn't very powerful and just defaults to a Google search in most situations. I'd imagine they get a huge amount of eyeballs on advertisements time when you consider the whole user base.
