I just had to look up how to do it, but in Firefox you can search bookmarks from the url bar by starting off with a * and a space.

(I'm glad I looked it up, this makes me more inclined to make bookmarks without sorting or tagging them)

I Firefox with Vimperator they're included in URL search as you start entering URLs. Based on either the URL or the page title / bookmark description.

This ... is exceptionally powerful.

Yeah, bookmarks are included like that with the standard search bar too, but I keep a lot of history so they don't really stand out.
They're distinguished as you type in Vimperator, and you can arrow up/down through the list to specific targets.
