Still baffled by lack of proper auto completion for URLs based on the (HTML) title, e.g. typing 'hacker' into the address bar still does not offer me e.g. news.ycombinator.com even when this page has been loaded before, cached and stored in the history (btw: the new history search _does_ find URLs based on the title and other page content).


Is that a huge complaint? I've always liked that I can just use the URL and have it autocomplete. (On Firefox, if I type "n" and hit enter it doesn't take me directly to news.ycombinator.com, and that always irritates me.)



Why not just browser.urlbar.autoFill -> true?


Neat! I still don't see the use for the awesome bar, period, but that's a good workaround to have.
