149023 - [RFE] Should be able to remove urls from auto-complete list

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 87098

(SeaMonkey :: Autocomplete, enhancement)

Description

[Max Spicer]

It should be possible to remove URLs from the list of candidates for
auto-completion.

Motivation: I am forever managing to mistype bugzilla.mozilla.org as
bugzilla.mozilla.og.  Having done this once, Mozilla faithfully remembers it and
offers it to me as the first auto-complete candidate when I start to type
bugzi....  Most of the time, I fail to notice that this is the mispelt version
(the right one comes straight after), and so press enter and get treated to an
error dialogue.  If I could just remove the erroneous candidate from the list, I
would be a very happy man.  Having to clear my entire auto-complete history is a
pain!

I'd envisage the interface as follows:
- Type in enough of url until unwanted candidate appears in auto-complete list.
- Right-click over unwanted URL.
- Select "Forget URL" (or whatever) from context-menu.

I notice that right-clicking on an URL in the auto-complete dropdown currently
has the same effect as a left click (i.e. it takes you to that URL).  This
shouldn't happen (IMO).  I'll file this as a separate bug (assuming it's not
already in) and mark this one as dependent on it.

[RFE] is deprecated in favor of severity: enhancement.  They have the same meaning.
