Other than my download manager tweak not working I dont really see much of a difference.

Dubbed the “AwesomeBar”, it lets you use the URL field of your browser to do a keyword search of your history and bookmarks. No longer do you have to know the domain of the page you’re looking for — the AwesomeBar will match what you’re typing (even multiple words!) against the URLs, page titles, and tags in your bookmarks and history, returning results sorted by “frecency” (an algorithm combining frequency + recency).

Probably that.

Yeah I hated that...still do.

There is a reason why I have sites in my bookmarks so I can go to them..I don't need the damn address bar remembering them for me or putting the most visited on top. I got everything back to the way v2 was in the means of address bar workings.
