Comment (by boklm):

 Replying to [comment:9 discram]:
 > This just happened to me and was completely unintended and unexpected
 (and confusing as I hadn't intentionally copied the URL to begin with,
 although I had visited it earlier in another browser).  This setting is
 actually turned off by default in Firefox Linux, but not Tor Linux.

 This setting is actually turned on by default in Firefox (and we don't
 change it in Tor Browser).
