URL bar ignores typing after suggestions are shown #1563

I type "medium.com⏎" and the suggestions are shown just after the c. Despite not pressing return until I'd typed om. The visited URL is http://medium.c. If the typing suggestions kick in before I get to the . then I get a search for something like "med".

You've tried to go to medium.c once and now the UAS thinks it's the best thing for you to go to every time.

Probably a dupe of #1360

So this isn't really about sort order (which is how I read #1360) it's about us using a completion that doesn't match at all. Granted it did at one point in my typing, but as soon as I pressed the o, medium.c failed to be a good completion. If I stop typing and wait for a few seconds, then the completions catch up, and correctly suggest medium.com, but I shouldn't need to wait a few seconds before I can safely press return.
