#Lifetime of an omnibox key press:
The stuff below is all made up. I have not worked on the omnibox in Chrome. But I wouldn't be surprised if this is close to reality.
- Should we initiate an IME? Chrome has one built in.
- I'm sure there's lots of allocations required for an IME but let's skip those
- Create request to ask Google for things that match what we're typing
- Create HTTP request data to send in request. Let's assume it's UTF8 json like {query:"k"}.
- Note: Being UTF-8 we're going to have to write that query on the fly.
