Custom Search Engines: Firefox now supports adding even more search engines. To add a custom engine, right-click a search field of a supported website and select “Add Search Engine”, or go to Settings > Search > Add (below the search shortcuts table) to manually enter a search URL.

"Settings > Search > Add" was already available in Firefox for Desktop, but you manually had to travel to about.config to add the missing browser.urlbar.update2.engineAliasRefresh boolean and set it to true. You've been able to do this for at least 4 years, and it's worked on Android for a while too.

Maybe they finally finished polishing it up.

You could right click address bar when on the search engine website. I've been using Firefox since before it hit version 1.0 and I didn't know this was a thing like a month ago. Bunch of features are there but are in really weird places or methods to access them...
