polipo, dns, and firefox

Hello,

If I type in a single word in the Firefox address bar, normal behavior 
is for Firefox to automatically complete the url if the domain exists or 
do a search if it doesn't (Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" by default).  I 
like this feature and have come to rely on it, however Polipo breaks 
it.  It appears to be due to the fact that Polipo won't report this as a 
non-existing domain.  So all I get is a generated page from Polipo 
instead. 

Is there a way to achieve the functionality I had previously?  If not, 
could something be put in to fix this?

Thanks,
Dan
