Often, when a long URL is sent via email, it will be wrapped into multiple
lines, like this:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/
detail/-/0596000529/qid%3D1080349246
In most mail clients, the top part will be clickable, but the bottom will not.
Thus, the user resorts to copy/paste. Currently, the user must copy the first
line, switch to mozilla, paste, switch back, copy the second line, switch back
to mozilla, and paste the rest.
The process would be greatly simplified if the Location field would simply
ignore any newlines, requiring the user to copy/paste only once.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select and copy any long, wrapped URL.
2. Paste URL into mozilla's Location field.
Actual Results:
Only the first line of the URL will be pasted in. The user must copy/paste each
line individually.
Expected Results:
The field should have ignored any newlines, thus assembling the URL properly
when pasted.

You get this functionality with a user preference:
user_pref("editor.singleLine.pasteNewlines", 3);
Add this line to your user.js in your profile, or create a user.js in your
profile containing this line.
