Thank you!  That works really nicely.  (I've settled on 1000 ms.)

But I have another problem: after installing the new version with
"git fetch; git merge origin" and resting conkeror,  many of
my webjumps now don't work.  For instance 

add_webjump("buzz", "http://buzzflash.com";);

is ignored - typing buzz leads me to www.buzz.com.  (I was at a
lecture when I did this, and the site it took me to immediately
started playing a video at full volume - embarrassing! :-)

Some experiments showed me that argument-less webjumps (abbreviations)
have been removed, but "buzz a" with a dummy argument will do what
"buzz" used to do by itself.

There was a discussion about webjumps recently, but I don't think it
addressed this change in behavior.  I do remember this statement from John:

You're right that "M-x buzz" is less effort to type (although I'm
accustomed to typing ESC-x to get M-x and conkeror doesn't let me do this).
But I'm afraid it's a bit confusing to go to some sites via M-x and
others via C-x C-f.  So if you're deprecating webjumps you should
probably eliminate them altogether (and perhpas provide a script to
translate webjump commands into interactive commands).

Thanks again for all your work

Silvio
