Hello.

I would like to turn off the input history feature of text boxes (the one used by ctrl-Z and ctrl-shift-Z).

I have already turned off browsing and search history but it's not enough. Since I rarely close my firefox browser I end up with hundreds of searches accessible this way.

The best would be to control the size of this history, so you could undo the last edit without having all the history there.

Is this already a feature?

For the urlbar, see:

You can paste this code in the command line of the Browser Console.

For the search bar you need to use "Clear Recent History" to clear "Form & Search History".

besides turning off history one also must empty the history cache via the "History" menu.

A fixed-length history, of say 4 items, sounds like a good idea for an add-on and certainly is doable.
