Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 249468

Location bar autocomplete should include smart keyword queries (not just the
URL). For example [g firefox "location bar" "smart keyword"] should be in
autocompletion as it is.

At the moment autocomplete terminates as soon as it finds a space character in
the location bar.

I would also be nice if search bar and smart keywords would be better linked. I
want to see the search engines of the search bar in my bookmarks, so I can just
select a keyword and have both behave equally (with equal autocomplete).
The search bar is just not made for keyboard users.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter "g foo" in location bar.
2. Press Enter.
3. Enter "g f"
4. Realize that autocompletion goes away just as you hit the space key.



Expected Results:  

Every *recognized* smart keyword query should go to autocomplete.

Ups, I quickly looked at this bug an thought it was just about bookmark URLs.
So that looks quite nice. I hope also the query following the keyword will be
put the to autocompletion list.
I would be sad to just have "g" the the list without all my search queries.
