Visit a url with the same work in the title and the url, ie https://github.com/Whitespace/Glome

Close safari and reopen it.

Type in "Whitespace" then "Bookmarks and History" shows up. Highlight a result, then go to the end of the line and delete that work, thinking you'll be editing the url directly to get: https://github.com/Whitespace

It matches on the title and allows you to edit that, leaving you with the option to search on "Whitespace/glome: Glome! Powered by " which is extremely baffling.

My expectation is that it matches the url and allows me to edit it, which is something I do very often for github repos: type the name of the user, highlight a history result so https://github.com/ is filled out, then option delete the repo and type in the one I want to go to.

Thanks for the specific example!
