Like Howard, I don't see what the issue is with having the bookmarks in the 
catalogue. A bookmark will only come up when the user types in a string 
that matches it, and if the bookmark in question is not what you want when 
you enter that string, QS will quickly learn that. Hiving them off into a 
separate function via a proxy object does not seem very useful to me.

But just because I don't see a need for this doesn't mean masonk doesn't. 
Basically, what masonk wants is the same behaviour for the Safari plugin as 
is used in the iTunes plugin. But if anything, I've always found that this 
sort of behaviour in the iTunes plugin was odd and annoying, and wish there 
were an option to put tracks, albums, artists, and playlist straight into 
the catalogue rather than using proxy objects. (Maybe if I had an enormous 
iTunes library I would think differently on this, but I don't, so I 
don't.) At any rate, if masonk wants to do the code work to add this 
functionality to the Safari plugin, fine, so long as it remains entirely 
optional and something that the user has to turn on for themselves in QS's 
settings. The default should be to use the method that currently exists.
