Don't want to search in adressbar / use server name autocompletion

Hi,

what annoys me most in 10.50 (Mac) is the changed behavior of the address bar, which always wants to search the web and disabling server name autocompletion - a feature I love very much!

Also I formed a habit to access several sites by entering the beginning of the hostname and then pressing arrow-down key once, to open the site, which is also saved as a bookmark. Now, I have to press it twice, because of the stupid "search the web for ***" entry in the dropdown.

Anybody knowing a solution?

Thanks a lot!
Steffen

Well there is a workaround for Windows, I'm not sure if it works for Mac.
Type the word (e.g. dell) and finish with a \ so it reads dell\ in the adressbar.

I neither want.

Short cuts and turns workarounds are bad jokes.
