If it's anything like how they handled the AI sidebar, this option is going to get hidden before it hits production.

    It would be really cool if they didn't do that this time.

    Hey, I'm not excited about more stuff getting added into an already overflowing Firefox (why not an extension?!), but if they must promote AI choice, I'm with you: actually allow user choice.

    (Based on how Mozilla has added two unrequested search engines while ignoring a request to add StartPage, the "choice" thing seems to boil down to backroom deals.)
