Comment #7 on issue 9732 by [email protected]: Fallback to site-search  
for URLs without Tab-to-search
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9732

Just a few thoughts on @comment 6:

Currently, if the auto-complete isn't considered a keyword, TAB will simply  
leave the
omnibox. In order to implement that scheme, this behavior would therefore  
need to
change.
However, if we change it as suggested, unless I'm misunderstanding  
something, the
user could NEVER leave the omnibox using TAB - which would likely impact
keyboard-loving users.

Strictly IMHO: Having the inline auto-complete text would also distract  
from the fact
that you can discard it in favor of search by using TAB. In my experience,  
TAB is
normally used to rather accept an auto-complete suggestion (cf. Visual  
Studio for
example).

Also, I don't quite understand how the site search in item 6 is to be  
deduced - is it
to be domain of the inline auto-complete text? If so, what if there is no
auto-complete URL for the input text?
