As I understand comment #84, if we keep this behaviour (ctrl-enter completing to www.<whatever>.com) at all, it'll be on Windows only. I don't see how macOS is special - Windows is, and Linux and macOS should get the 'open in a new tab' behaviour. What I'm saying is that whether we use the existing canonizeURL behaviour should go be behind a pref that's true on Windows and false everywhere else (ifdef'd in all.js).
