Is it possible to disable previous inputs from text dropdown lists? Eg: I type a word into a search engine, and Firefox 'remembers' that word next time I click on the text input field to search again.

Thanks, I wish this would be disabled by default.

I've just found it in about:config as well, it's listed under browser.formfill.enable
