URL Autocomplete behavior changed in 50

Project Member Reported by roy...@google.com, Mar 15 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.26 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Start typing a URL you have typed before

What is the expected behavior?
1. It should auto complete the url in the omnibox

What went wrong?
1. Instead, it shows suggessions, but doesn't auto complete
2. Additionally, sometimes, I have to type in http:// to get to hostnames which are resolvable using local DNS (go links)

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 50.0.2661.26  Channel: beta
OS Version: 
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0

In this example, it should have auto completed to https://www.google.com/calendar?tab=mc but it didn't... and even though it has other suggestions, none of them are inside the omnibox.

Fairly certain your "hostnames are resolvable via local DNS" is not a Chrome issue, but an issue with the extension that handles/intercepts such resolutions (name redacted in public bug, but it's the big green checkmark / black X to the right of the omnibox)

URL autocompletion behavior should not have changed meaningfully in M50.

Please post the complete results from about:omnibox for problematic inputs with all three display checkboxes checked.  Just copy and paste the text here, don't worry about how it will strip the formatting.
