I'd like to see a configuration option to make the location textbox
auto-complete feature search through the URL's of the user's bookmarks before it
searches through the history. I think it make keyboard navigation more efficient.

You mean you want it to display them above actual history ones? I'm not
criticizing the idea, but I don't think many people would like it, and would
rather complain about it if anything. When I use the autocomplete, I expect
history to be brought up. What happens if I type in "www.r" and I have nine
bookmarks that start like that? Then I'd have to wade through all of those
before I got to the page I visited two minutes ago.
I can see where this is going and I think everyone can agree that another pref
checkbox is not in order for this, so a decision must be made here. If a neato
UI implementation of this in autocomplete can be made (I can't think of
anything), then this could certainly have a chance of landing.

I can understand the drawbacks of yet-another-config-option, so what about
making a keyboard shortcut to do bookmark lookaheads/auto-complete? I envision
it looking and acting like Ctrl-Shift-L, but it would go through bookmarks
instead. (Is Ctrl-Shift-B being used?)

Actually I think this would be very cool. Not really a Keyboard Navigation bug
specifically though.

Currently autocomplete looks through Bookmarks by default, so closing this as WFM

Not true, you must have changed the value of browser.urlbar.default.behavior - possible values are:
0 - Show everything
1 - Don't show unvisited URLs
2 - Don't show unbookmarked URLs
4 - Don't show untagged URLs
8 - Don't show if the title doesn't match
16 - Don't show if the URL doesn't match
32 - Don't show if the URL wasn't "typed"
So if you are silly enough to set it to 63 then you will only autocomplete against tagged bookmarks that you have typed and visited and have the string matching both URL and title.

I didn't, but it seems that those URLs was visited, I rechecked again on clean profile and new bookmarks doesn't appear in autocomplete. On other hand, is that option not enough to fulfill this request?

I'm not sure that about:config counts as a configuration option...
