Public bug reported: Keywords in bookmarks have a lower priority than URL matches. For example, suppose I have a keyword named "google", and I have recently visited www.google.com. If I type "google" into the location bar, it will match "www.google.com" and go to that URL. It should have instead activated the bookmark matching that keyword.
To reproduce this bug: 1) Make a bookmark to www.yahoo.com and give it a keyword of "google". 2) Visit www.google.com so it will be in the cache. 3) Open a new tab. 4) In the new tab's location bar, type "google" and press enter. Expected result: You go to www.yahoo.com. Actual result: You go to www.google.com. Workaround: After typing a keyword, press "delete" before pressing enter. I just updated Firefox to version 35.0.1 "Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0" and the problem was not present previously (in version 34.0).
