Details

If the user changes the "Location" field for a bookmark which has a keyword, the keyword will never recognize the new location, continuing to take the user to the old location. If the user changes the "Keyword" field for a bookmark, while the new keyword will work as expected, the old keyword continues to function as well, having not been deleted. Follow these steps to reproduce the issue with editing the "Location" field: 1) From such as the bookmarks sidebar, right-click and select "New Bookmark" 2) fill "Name" field with "example"; fill "Location" with "http://example.com/"; fill "Keyword" with "example"; select "Add" 3) type "example" into the location bar and press enter; the result is as expected, that you are taken to example.com. 4) now, right click on the bookmark and select "Properties" 5) change "Location" to "http://not-example.com/" -- select "Save" 6) type "example" into the location bar and press enter; the result is that you are still taken to example.com instead of to not-example.com as you should have been. Follow these steps to reproduce the issue with editing the "Keyword" field: 1) From such as the bookmarks sidebar, right-click and select "New Bookmark" 2) fill "Name" field with "example2"; fill "Location" with "http://example2.com"; fill "Keyword" with "example2"; select "Add" 3) type "example2" into the location bar and press enter; the result is as expected, that you are taken to example2.com. 4) now, right click on the bookmark and select "Properties" 5) change "Keyword" to "not-example2" -- select "Save" 6) type "example2" into the location bar and press enter; the result is that you are still taken to example2.com even though that keyword was replaced with "not-example2" (note: "not-example2" will also take you to example2.com, so the issue seems to be that the old keyword wasn't deleted as it should have been)
