In previous versions of Firefox, I was able to type a search in the address bar and it would automatically direct it as a google search. It will not do that now, and I thought that was a good feature. Is this still an available feature or setting or has it completely been done away with in the new version?

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use a Google Lucky search.
