What happens if you select (highlight) the unwanted item and
press your Delete key?

Well, of course, you know if you "select" an item from the
location bar history, the browser loads that page.

Yes, that is why I clarified by writing "(highlight)" above.

In that case, what are the specific keyboard/mouse actions you have
in mind?

I usually use the Up/DownArrow keys when I want to select (highlight)
an item in the history dropdown. But mouse-without-click and
mousewheel also highlights items prior to action. This only works if
one is not completely married to the mouse.

You're right, I can select items on the location bar history with the up/down arrow keys. Having done so, the Del key has no effect.

Mouseover has no effect (is that what you mean by "mouse without click"?), and spinning the wheel in either direction has two results: a) with the list expanded after an up/down arrow, it closes the list; b) with the list hidden, it has no effect.

A mouse click actually consists of two events: a downpress and a release. If I click and hold (downpress only), nothing happens, and if I drag (hold the left mouse button down and move the cursor) within the list, nothing happens; if I drag outside the list the selection is released without effect. The moment I release the left mouse button (as long as the cursor is within the list), the browser loads that page; if I release outside the list nothing happens (the list remains visible, but as noted above the selection is released when I drag outside the list).

In sum, I can't find a way to make your instructions work. Can you?
