This feature does not work:

" Search for the text immediately before the form control you want and press Tab. Pressing Tab automatically exits the search and sets focus to the NEXT form field or button after the highlighted text."

This might be the wrong article url, as it no longer has this quoted text in it. However you can also make sure that this feature is turned on: Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms

Is it that the feature does not work when an accessibility feature/extension is turned on?
