My problems were a Firefox issue. They went away when I applied one of my favourite Tweaks:

Code:
openers_by_scheme = {'http*': 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft/Edge/Application/msedge.exe %u'}
No strange behaviour with Edge, which is very vanilla (one tiny extension to not terminate when last tab is closed). I got the "No web search URL for authors John Schember" message when I had the Custom URL set to "Not a URL".

Ironically, if I had used my Installed calibre settings (53 items) rather that the Defaults (8 items) I would not have seen the strange behaviour in Firefox :lol:

If there was a Do Nothing option, the value entered for a Custom search URL could perhaps be validated to ensure it is syntactically valid. That's what bothered me, having to induce a desired behaviour by entering dodgy data… it violates my puritanical instincts
