    For a while, Firefox on Android used to right-align the TLD with the edge of the URL bar (plus a little bit of space, so you could tell whether the URL contained a path segment or not), so even excessively long subdomains couldn't push the main domain off-screen. I think that feature got lost again in the recent rewrite, though...

    Expand the url bar to show the full domain like wrap text in cell works in excel. That would be pretty effective in showing scam urls

      +1 to this. We're now in a world where long urls are the norm. The ominbox or urlbox should be [optonally] multi lined with word-wrap. (Adds the idea to the list of things he wants in his 'Ultimate Browser' that one day he'll write.)

      Isn't this basically the same solution as the one chrome was experimenting with - selectively hiding portions of the URL that they seemed irrelevant? Putting some ugly characters in it isn't really any different to just hiding them
