Sometimes it would be useful to do a multi-word search that contains a space. Right now we treat each word separately.

Initially I was a little worried about people needing to actually search for page titles with " marks in them, but then I got a grip.

We're basically making the location bar into a full fledged search field, and I totally love it.

FYI, searching for """ will find a double quote. Or basically any " not at the front/end of a token.
