i just went to private viewing mode and inserted the first letter of a web address and the entire web address appeared. I then went to regular firefox to test this and the same privately-viewed web address showed up there as well. this has never happened before.

This happens to me too. I filed a bug for what may be expected: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1111049

However private mode is designed to just not save the browser data, not to not have access to that information.

Please do comment on the bug for some rationale, I would be happy to help.

At this time though it is expected behavior :-)
