What in the world? Why do we need to remove the URL bar? It can still be
valuable when working with web pages, and even for some text documents. It sure
saves time when inserting specialized hyperlinks directly into documents.

As far as I'm concerned, unless a feature is a hazaard, why bother taking it
out? Just move it off to the side, or turn it off, leaving it up to the user to
do what they like with it.

You could argue that features can get too cluttered and complicated, but hey,
whatever turns the crank of the developers. I kind of like see-ing evolutionary
progress versus revolutionary progress. I view evolution as being more
balanced, and somewhat less error prone.
