Description

Consider adding autocomplete entry for source typed URL instead of/in addition to the page that it was redirected to.
For example, many people type maps.google.com which redirects to google.com/maps. It would be convenient to have maps.google.com as an autocomplete entry. (not the best example as maps.google.com was added as a Top Site, but it gives the general idea).

@liunkae different- this issue covers how maps.google.com redirecting to google.com/maps. We should consider storing original URL (before redirect) in the auto complete results
