I'm sure it just changes the URL bar so you can see what happens.

Regardless, it's already in their tool box because they make the browser.

They could be re-writing urls and not showing you, if they wanted to. And as long as no one notices, you can keep doing it.

Good point. It also sounds better to build it in than having a browser extension for it.
