I absolutely do not want it to hide any URI schemes or subdomains at all. (I am able to change these settings in Firefox, at least. I could also disable Unicode rendering for the domain name, but to disable Unicode rendering for the filename I had to write an extension.)

By default, Firefox's address bar hides the http:// scheme but shows the https:// scheme (to emphasize that the connection is secure). Firefox users that want to see the http:// scheme can set the "browser.urlbar.trimURLs" about:config pref to false.

FYI you can revert this behavior in chrome://flags

chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-scheme

chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-trivial-subdomains

chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-path-query-and-ref

I just disable all of these.
