126924 - add ability to keep certain URLs in auto-complete memory

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: Location Bar, enhancement)

Description

[Kit]

It would be nice if bookmarked sites, or sites you flagged, remained in the URL
bar's auto-complete memory. Even if you had not visited in a week (or however
long you set it to last), it would still pop up in the list of close possible URLs.

Comment 1

[Andy Edmonds]

A smarter auto-complete scheme would address this need.  See bug 78270.

Comment 2

[John Levon]

I don't think it will, reporter is asking for bookmarks never to
expire from autocomplete no ?

It would certainly help though.

Comment 3

[Kit]

Yes. I think it would be convenient for bookmarked sites (or maybe just
*selected* bookmarked sites) to perpetually remain in autocomplete.

Comment 4

[Henrik Lynggaard Hansen]

confirming bug,

Personally i think the solution should be that bookmarks allways appear
autocomplete. I don't think there is a need for any special flagging mechanism
.bookmarking is the flagging mechanism, and anything more would be bloat (my
personal opinion)

MASS-CHANGE:
This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state.

If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way.
If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.

This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but still has no comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project 5 years ago.

Because of this, we're resolving the bug as EXPIRED.

If you still can reproduce the bug on SeaMonkey 2 or otherwise think it's still valid, please REOPEN it and if it is a platform or toolkit issue, move it to the according component.
