Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. go to about.com 2. go to about:config 3. go to google.com 4. type about in the location bar 5. select about:config in the pulldown menu 6. cmd+return Actual Results: about.com is opened in a new tab! Expected Results: about:config should be opened in a new tab if about:config is typed into the location bar, then cmd+return displays the expected behaviour.
See also bug 316620; this might be the same problem. We don't actually autocomplete about:config in the location bar when you select it in the child window, whereas for all other urls we do autocomplete the entire url.
Summary: cmd+return doesn't work with about:config → cmd+return doesn't work with about:config in autocomplete window

We deliberately do not autocomplete about: URLs. (Probably a choice related to the fact that we don't save them in history outside the current session.) We probably ought not to display them in the autocomplete array, which would solve this problem. Alternatively, we should properly autocomplete but continue not saving them in history. cl

Firefox does the latter, but if the former is simpler (and it seems to me it will be), then we should just do the simplest thing.
