Strings which don't match the URL pattern should be searched when typed in AddressField #165

Modern browsers allow you to enter non-URL strings to the addressbar which get searched using default search engine.

Since an exception is thrown I believe we aren't processing the string before making HTTP request.

Yes, we haven't implemented this at the moment.

It would be nice if the drop down suggestions included an option to search for the string, in addition to the history suggestions.
