User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050601 Firefox/1.0.4 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050601 Firefox/1.0.4 Location bar autocomplete should include smart keyword queries (not just the URL). For example [g firefox "location bar" "smart keyword"] should be in autocompletion as it is. At the moment autocomplete terminates as soon as it finds a space character in the location bar. I would also be nice if search bar and smart keywords would be better linked. I want to see the search engines of the search bar in my bookmarks, so I can just select a keyword and have both behave equally (with equal autocomplete). The search bar is just not made for keyboard users. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter "g foo" in location bar. 2. Press Enter. 3. Enter "g f" 4. Realize that autocompletion goes away just as you hit the space key. Expected Results: Every *recognized* smart keyword query should go to autocomplete.
Ups, I quickly looked at this bug an thought it was just about bookmark URLs. So that looks quite nice. I hope also the query following the keyword will be put the to autocompletion list. I would be sad to just have "g" the the list without all my search queries.
