This is actually the root of the problem, the address bar behavior in my firefox config always gives me the first hit as one of 2 options:

1. Base url of a website (in my case, it only searches bookmarks, but if you enable search history it will match to base url of historical searches as well)

2. If it can't find a match, then it defaults to a web search

What I want is for it to match full url's from either the history or bookmarks, but this does not seem to be an option
