Dhhwai; You're absolutely correct ! Thanks for pointing this out to me. I didn't even notice the search box in the bookmark manager.
So now what is the key command to bring it up ? In Firefox it's ctrl-B. Update; Ah, noticed ctrl-shift-B in the menu. J When I used ctrl-B a small approx 1 pixel high and the width of the window box opens just below the address/search bar. What is it for ?

In the Chrome Bookmark Manager there is a search box in the top-right corner which filters bookmarks as you type (like FF) and also Chrome's Omnibox/address bar filters/suggests from bookmarks (like FF). Stephen, am I misunderstanding something from your post? However, I do agree with Ted that making the Bookmarks window a "dockable" window or sidebar is definitely needed. If an existing bug report for that does not already exist, it should be submitted at: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/entry Stephen, when you say "toolbar support" do you mean user-created custom extension toolbars?
