Thanks, this is good to know.  I got out of the habit of reading the
Mozilla manual way back around Moz 1.0, because there was almost nothing
in it.  All of the non-trivial information was scattered around HOWTO
pages on the net.  Some of that is still true, but clearly Firefox has a
real manual.  Worth remembering.
