Requesting an add-on or whatever to do...
I've always thought it would be nice to be able to select a preference that is in an article about Fx and through some mechanism have it open up in about:config with the selected pref displayed. I don't know if it would need to be an add-on or something else. If an add-on it would have to be a Webextension.

I tried opening the about:blank and about:config pages with a Foxy Gestures UserScript.

Foxy Gestures User Scripts
http://github.com/marklieberman/foxyges ... er-Scripts
Code: Select all
/* Foxy Gestures UserScript */
(function () {
// succeeds
executeInBackground("(" + function (aUrl) {
browser.tabs.create({url: aUrl});
} + ")", ["about:blank"]);
// fails
executeInBackground("(" + function (aUrl) {
browser.tabs.create({url: aUrl});
} + ")", ["about:config?filter=devtools.chrome.enabled"]);
}());
Foxy GesturesError: Illegal URL: about:config?filter=devtools.chrome.enabled
