I actually went back after creating the bug and attempted right-clicking on the
address bar to see if there was any options hidden in there. I found the "Text
Completion" menu and was able to select "None" which worked.

Can I request that the default behaviour be switched to "Dropdown List" instead
of "Dropdown List & Automatic". This may confuse users, as it did me. I went
into Settings -> Configure Dolphin to disable it, but I couldn't locate any
options in there to disable auto-completion.

It seems unsafe to have the address bar auto-completing strings when a user is
explicitly attempting to enter a string that is new but closely matches items
in their history/home.

This may be exploitable as a form of clickjacking by creating executable files
in the home directory that closely match items in the users history.
