After using Chrome for a decade and switching back to Firefox, one feature I missed was the ability to right-click and Go to [url] directly, for any selected text that vaguely resembles a URL.

I made Goto foo to approximately replicate Chrome’s behavior in Firefox, but it would be nice if no extension were necessary.

    I agree with you 100% and highlighting text and choosing the new tab option isn’t always viable. I often have to copy text from outside the browser and paste it into the address bar, I really miss that feature of Chrome.

    Edit: why the down votes? He makes a fair point that some of you are disagreeing with without considering that there are those out there that use their browsers differently than yourself. Even if I used Firefox as my primary browser for the last 3 years I’m still able to be honest about my experience.
