In Settings, I have configured "When using the address bar, suggest..." to use my Bookmarks, and nothing else.
Let's say I have a bookmark for the URL: https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/products/
If I start typing "moz", that bookmark appears in the suggestions, but the autocomplete also offers me the domain's "home" URL, https://www.mozilla.org.
I don't have that "home" URL bookmarked, so I don't want it to be suggested to me - as I told Firefox when I set "Bookmarks" as the only source of suggestions. Often when trying to navigate quickly to a bookmarked page, I assume that autocomplete will be giving me my bookmarked page, and end up accidentally going to the "home URL" instead.
So is there a setting that lets me keep my bookmark suggestions, but disable this "autocomplete with home URL" behaviour?
This isn't specific to mozilla.org: that URL was just an example.
