114271 - Rapid 'location bar history' editing to remove annoying entries?

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 87098

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

Description

[J. Kanowitz]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:0.9.5) Gecko/20011028
BuildID:    

After heavy browsing, similar URIs often make it into the location bar history
(guerrilla.net; guerrillanews.com).  While enhancing overall usability would
require a greater eye to interaction design (making Bookmarks more rapidly
keyboard-accessible), here's a little idea to add to the Mozbloat:

In the URL history dropdown, allow DEL to remove a URI from the list.
Simple to implement, I hope?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Visit Guerrillanews.com
2.Visit Guerrilla.net
3.Visit other sites, so you can't use the Alt-LeftArrow excuse ;)
4.Try to get back to Guerrillanews.com with a minimal amount of typing
5.Highlight Guerrilla.net in the location history dropdown, tap DEL
6.Become chagrined that DEL did not remove the entry
7.Become confused that DEL *selected* the entry
