just type http://server the first time
the second time it will be in the history, and inserted as first item of the 
list.
we can't interogate a dns each time the user press a key, the best we can do 
is interogate when he stops typing.

unsane ?

if we don't do that, all the concept of one bar (instead of two bar: history 
and search) is unsane.

I agree it is useful after the user press enter, but only the protocol 
detection is interesting when he is typing.
