Comment (by leavengood):

 The code I originally wrote for this was very stupid, though it seems to
 have been improved a lot in subsequent years:

 http://cgit.haiku-
 os.org/haiku/tree/src/apps/webpositive/BrowserWindow.cpp#n2465

 We probably just need to create a new class to handle this and mimic
 Chrome's logic:

 
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/components/omnibox/autocomplete_input.cc&l=132

 The above is pretty complicated (and maybe more complicated than we need),
 but it is well commented.

 Having some unit tests around it would be good probably.

 This would be a great little piece of code for someone to contribute!

 I would enjoy doing it but don't have the time.
