Under Linux, in previous versions of Firefox (and Seamonkey, all the way back to Mozilla), I could open a URL by selecting the text in an xterm, then using the middle mouse button "paste" it anywhere in web page document window. That text would then open as a URL.

This no longer works in Firefox 5. Is there any way to re-enable this feature ?

Here's how to re-enable this feature : Browse to: about:config Enable "middlemouse.contentLoadUrl" Next you probably want to set editor.singleLine.pasteNewlines to 2 or 3 lines; it 'repairs' URLs that contain newlines. Enjoy !

No, that's not good enough. It only works if the link you paste actually starts with http://. Just pasting like 'foobar.com' will not do anything. Unfortunately the latter is what you usually have. Very annoying and a step back.
