I was adding a preference to about:config.
Made a mistake and added it as string instead of Boolean.
Said to myself, "no problem, I'll just delete it", and recreate it.
I right clicked on it, and could not find menu option to delete it.
How do you delete a preference in about:config?.

Re: How do you delete perference in about.config
Right-click the Pref, Reset, then restart your browser.
(The restart could wait, ordinarily, but I take it you want to add the Pref back in with its correct type, so restart.)

Restarting the browser isn't needed. just refresh the about:config page.

Heh.
Sure enough that works, & is faster too.

Another "oddity".
When preferences are listed by name, it looks to use a case-sensitive ASCII sort.
And with that 'B' comes before 'a', or 'Feeds.logging.console' comes before 'accessibility.AOM.enabled'.
