[Feature request] Restore flag #omnibox-bookmark-paths #633

Open Darthagnon opened 1 month ago

Darthagnon commented 1 month ago

In older versions of Chromium, autocomplete suggestions from bookmarks in the omnibox would appear with a favicon next to them, the title, and the url, like so:

In current versions of Chromium and Supermium, those same suggestions appear with the path to the bookmark, which is useless information in this context:

For a while, there was a flag to disable this anti-feature, #omnibox-bookmark-paths - would it please be possible to restore this flag or revert this behaviour?

Many thanks!

Definitely. (this is the relevant commit, seems complicated but the part to change the path to the URL should not be: https://github.com/chromium/chromium/commit/4a9dd5ab3709d60f40beb2f801a0185ab2ba992a#diff-b98ee78788d24ecc151c3f8e74fef65be502cb8f1e28fe591d5cfb54010c8a96)

As a side note, I am currently rebasing to Chromium 124 LTS. I am shifting Windows 7/8.x-specific compatibility patches to progwrp in order to focus on Supermium feature backports and additions.
