Very cool. I hadn’t given it much thought, but yes, I’d like my history more available.
Since you’re so clever, I’ve got another one for you. Now that you’ve got it all in the archive, can you do a custom search only within your history?
I know you could do that in your local cache. You’d think that google could set that up as one of their features. That would be way cool, and save you the trouble.

You mean do a custom Google search only over URLs already in my Firefox URL history? I can’t do that, no. (In part, because my current Firefox profile is only 2 years old or so.) I prefer going through Evernote, IRC logs, site searches, or just my local cache as you point out.
I think one could set it up if one really wanted to, though. Google offers Custom Search Engines to which you can upload target URLs in an XML file thing. >6k URLs blows the limit, but the CSEs let you specify pages where any URL on that page is then treated as a target, so you’d just dump your history onto a page and specify that.
