Personally, I think that we've been adding too many preferences to
Quicksilver over the years ;-)
Quicksilver should be smart enough to do everything that you want, when you
want it. The above example is just a quick idea off the top of my head, but
one that I think could be used to improve Quicksilver's smartness -
something I think it's been lacking in recent years (it hasn't got any
smarter, just stayed as smart as it's always been)
