Details

Typing an arithmetic expression into location bar should perform search with default search engine, rather than try to load a url. Steps to reproduce: 1. Type arithmetic expression *with decimals* into location bar (e.g., 24*24*.24) 2. Enter Result: Firefox tries to load www.24*24*.24 Expected result: Firefox loads (google) search result of 24*24*.24 Note: Arithmetic expressions w/o decimals are redirected correctly.
