To re-enable this, a setting in the Firefox config needs to be changed.

the address bar enter "about:config", as if you wanted to access a
website. Then click on the "I'll be careful, I promise" button.
The important setting here to change is the following:
Double-click on the "browser.urlbar.trimURLs" row and it will change the value to false (and it will become bold).
From now on the address bar shows the http:// again:
