I have safari set to fullscreen and only showing the address-bar.

I use "Top Sites" for my bookmarks, which I have set to four-finger-tap, so i never need the bookmarks bar.

The only time I ever need the address-bar is to enter a url or search. When I do, I use the command-L shortcut.

Is there any way that I can have the address-bar invisible until I hit command-L, then disappear again after I hit enter?

I'm trying to get a completely fullscreen setup going...

I have found that I can right-click the bar, and select "hide toolbar", but that disables the command-L and it comes back when I re-open safari.

Any suggestions? Maybe an applescript? A Safari add-on? A keyboard shortcut I don't know about?

Thanks in advance for any help :)
