Good point. That would be nice behaviour, I also find myself often editing a URL just to get the dropdown.
Maybe the most sane option would be to bring back the arrow button (as much as I dislike it) to show at least the possible search engines/smart bookmarks. Or special case this situation and always show the popup for search engines after pasting. If both is not desired, maybe at least a hidden key combination could be added to bring up the popup (something like shift+downarrow).
Hidden keycombo's are generally frowned upon, see for instance bug 117650. Bringing back the arrow button might just be a worthwile idea.
