Taking a risk here as I haven't used this bookmarklet, nor have I followed this thread in great detail. That said... What about implementing this as a Greasemonkey script?... Could / Would Joshua just disable it then?... Maybe. But really: Why?... I like del.icio.us really, really simple - so that people can use it however they want. Many people are very creative this way; some much less so. But why prevent the "less creative" from being less creative?... I really don't get this. If lazy sheep is about copying a link, tags, comment and all, then I say, Yeah! There'd certainly be cases when I might want to do that. They'd probably be rare, but certainly not never.
