Personally, I use the nickname feature of smart bookmarks a LOT more
than the bookmarks themselves. If I want to google something, I type "g
my search terms" in the address bar and off it goes. If I want to look
something up on wikipedia, I do "w lookup thing" and it takes me there.
I also have d for dictionary, bugs for the Debian BTS and debs for the
Debian packages page. That functionality also exists in Firefox and
probably others.

But if you really do make use of all of those text boxes next to the
search buttons, I can't really think of any other browser off the top of
my head that provides the same functionality.
