The last version of Explorer for Mac was able to recognize when you typed in the name of a bookmark or the title of a page that you had visited. I think that this would be a great feature for Firefox. When you have a large history file or lot of bookmarks, this feature is very useful, particularly when you cannot remember which folder you put a bookmark in or the bookmark's full name. 

Reproducible: Always
Not sure what you mean. Something like the Autocomplete Manager extension?
There is such a feature if you give your bookmark a keyword, you can type only that keyword in location bar and it will open up the bookmark. As far as history, firefox provides a search feature for your history so that you can better find th webpage that you are looking for.

If there is anything else we can help you with please let us know.
