For many versions now, removing the separate search bar via Customize Toolbar reverts to combined URL bar and search bar. It also leaves the search option in the right-click menu.

That may be the case, but typing into my address bar does not trigger or suggest searches. Good point about the right click.

Oooh! That explains why I haven't been able to disable that stuff from the omnibar. I hate the omnibar -- I just want text entered there to be interpreted as a URL and nothing else -- but at some point, I wasn't able to configure it to be that anymore.

If this is why, you've just made Firefox better for me! Thank you!
