Currently, the history DB isn't loaded until you visit a webpage. This kills the autocomplete widget for people who have no homepage, and try to type a url before loading a page. I realize this was probably a startup perf enhancement, but I think it needs to go, or else autocomplete won't work.

Sounds like the API could use a little love. If you fail to look up the URL bar contents in the history, can't you just send it down the stack to networking anyway?

Summary: stop loading history db lazily → open history db when autocomplete starts
Target Milestone: --- → mozilla0.9.1
the problem is not that it is loaded lazily. the problem is we need to load it when autocomplete starts. This should be as simple as putting OpenDB() in the beginning of whatever the first call Autocomplete calls..I should have caught this in my review :)
