This seems related to bug 1634592, but I thought I'd file it separately since I'm not sure I need the fix suggested there. web-platform-tests has 260 different domains that are `web-platform.test`, `not-web-platform.test`, or subdomains thereof. The problem I encounter is that I type web-platform plus some search terms, say url, select a match in the dropdown that's indicated with the globe with the keyboard (say http://web-platform.test:8000/url/) and then further manipulate it (say add resources/). Then it changes from a globe to a search. Ideally we make use of the fact that the domain has been visited before and not require the user to manually prefix a manipulated URL with http:// to prevent it from being turned into a search. Incidentally this does not happen with the https://web-platform:8443/ counterpart so it may be related to hiding http://.
