bug 2008977 shows the suggestion list so it'll be more obvious what tab is selecting

pressing right arrow key fills suggested text same as in URLBar in classic mode

Comment 3

[Ed Lee :Mardak]

tab is not intended to complete the rest of the autofilled text here as it's already there so pressing <enter> will directly navigate to the domain now that bug 2008926 landed, and editing the domain can be done as comment 2 by pressing <right>
