This update makes it much easier to add custom search engines in Firefox. You can now right-click in a search field on a supported website and select “Add Search Engine” to add it. You can edit the name and assign a keyboard.

Am I misremembering things, didn't this feature exist already in the past?

Sort of. I believe search engine providers actually have to create an extension to be listed in the setting.

No I distinctly remember being able to right click and add a keyword and bookmark for search field on random website forms, even internal ones on company intranet sites and such
