I went back to about:config, reverted my changes, and lo and behold, it works! It still clears my search history every time I restart, though, much to my annoyance :(. Oh well. Ryan wrote:

If you decide against the search then the box will not reset. It’s important to note that the search box will only reset after the search was performed.

I am constantly taking issue with these three things. I already had done the "open search in a new tab" hack manually. The only feature I would like to see is that, if you already have a blank tab open, it does the search in there. That would help if you forgot that you had the new tab hack on (that happens to me a lot ;)). It's also kind of annoying that it keeps clearing the search history, but that's a sacrifice I'll have to make. Also, I agree, these features should be in Firefox 3, minus the annoyances.
