It would be nice if suggestedIndex == -1 meant that the result should always be last, -2 meant it should be the second to last, etc. With quick suggest, it should always be last, so currently we have to use UrlbarPrefs.get("maxRichResults") - 1. (We should be using queryContext.maxResults - 1...) IIRC Dale assumed/thought that -1 would work, for example.
Not a big deal, more of a nice to have. One concern is that suggestedIndex == -1 currently means "no suggested index," so we'd have to change that and potentially update a bunch of tests, but that might not be so hard if we can mostly just update head.js to change the default "no suggested index" value.

This is more than just a nice-to-have. Given the result span problem described in bug 1699211 and bug 1699607, there's no way for quick suggest to accurately specify the last index as its suggested index.
