What I’m trying to do for Firefox is turn off the drag and drop in the Address bar. Is there any way/setting to do that? I know clicking once or triple clicking after editing selects the whole address bar, but if I use my mouse to select part of the URL, it starts dragging if I don’t drag exactly horizontally. IE doesn’t do that. Any way out?

Unfortunately I don’t know of any way around that. I’m trying to figure out if that’s intentional, or a bug.

The ctrl-tab tab switch is really cool. kinda like what i get with alt-tab with compiz on ubuntu. the address bar improvements are welcome too.

The Ctrl+Tab is pretty nice. I think they found a nice middle ground with not making it overly fancy, and yet making it useful. Although I still don’t know if I’m going to remember to use Ctrl+Tab to switch between tabs.
