From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020721
BuildID:    20022072104

After errornous entering search keywords as "http-address": select the "Search
for ..." from the address-bar pull-down menu, but it gives error message
(instead of running the search.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. write some keywords into the address bar
2. by mistake just hit <Enter>, without previous <Arrow Down>
3. Error message occures, that the "address" is invalid
4. Select the "Search for ..." from the address-bar pull-down menu, but it gives
the same error message. Only after any change in the text the search request is
accepted

Actual Results:  I cannot get the search results without editing the address bar...

Expected Results:  By hitting <enter> by mistake (not selected "Search for.."),
if the browser recognizes, that it is an "invalid address", it could directly
call the search engine.
