Finally, the Omnibox gets some love with partial URL/title matching. I switched from Firefox to Chrome for a while, and the Omnibox was my number one gripe: the URL matching was frustratingly poor, and it seemed to have no concept of sorting by recency or most visited. By comparison, the sort order in Firefox's AwesomeBar is so well-thought out that most of the time I can find the site I want in only a couple of keystrokes - yesterday, I needed to pull up a URL I'd used the day before, but all that came to mind was that it contained a '|' character... when I typed in '|', it appeared.
Maybe it's time for me to give Chrome another go, but it's got a high bar to beat.
