Option in about:config to enable the spell checker in the firefox address bar. Not turned on by default as red underlining is probably confusing to new users. Ignore words that are urls. This would be useful for me as I often use the address bar for quick searches - but my spelling is terrible. | Option in about:config to enable the spell checker in the firefox address bar.

Suppose I mistype a URL and get, for example, a 404 error. It would be sensible not to remember this address in the history, especially since it is possible for that address to be matched first in autocomplete which is annoying. Something similar could be done with permanent redirects, although there's less of a case for that. | |||
