That's what used to happen, but with this version, if you type a word and search something, and you'll still see the search terms in the address bar. (Although you can disable it if you don't like it.)

Heh, that seems exactly what the new search term persistence feature enables with the unified address bar.
In settings, the first checkbox under "Search" is "Show search terms in the address bar on results pages", so it should be relatively easy to disable if you really don't like it. I'm going to try to see if I can get used to it first though.
Oh je bent niet de enige die het jammer vindt, maar misschien wel in de minderheid als je vindt dat de nadelen niet opwegen tegen de voordelen. Ik had het ook graag gehouden, maar helaas niet tegen de huidige kosten.

So I guess the question is... Next time someone (who?) is looking for an easy way to find software projects - will they use this portal? Will they be able to even find it, and if they do, will it help them find the software they need? Will it prevent people from re-implementing software, and if it does, will it move them to support an existing project, or just not do anything at all?
Sorry, I guess that's actually a bunch of questions :P But I'm not optimistic about the answers to them, and then my automatic next question is: I wonder how much it has cost to build this?
This looks like the classic type of EU portal of which I can only wonder... Who will actually use this?
The other two are also not so much in jail, as it is that she's forced to wear an ankle bracelet, as per your link.
If you can live with one character extra, @t<tab>

lands me on Bing, but if you don't use Bing you can just remove that search engine, I imagine.
I'm not sure how you'd do it through clicking, but I can press Esc to close the suggestions, and then Esc again to get the original URL. So instead of my usual Ctrl+L -> Ctrl+C, it's now Ctrl+L -> Esc -> Esc -> Ctrl+C.
