Open address bar url / searches in background
Hello, I've set FF to open addresses and search from the url bar in a new tab. I want to set that tab to open in the background, which is something I've managed to do in the past, but I can't find this option now.
What's the about:config parameter for this? Thanks

You can open in a background tab by holding down the Shift key while middle-clicking the Go arrow button or Ctrl+Shift+left-click or Alt+Shift+Enter.

I know but I want the tab in background to be the default option, this is a workaround... Thanks
The address bar does not stay open after clicking though, so opening multiple suggested items in the background still wouldn't be very easy.

But there's a way to make urls and searches to open a tab in the background by default, and this is what I am looking for...
You could try making this preference true : browser.search.openintab

It was already set to true.
