I agree with this for history items. Perhaps sorting by the most frequently visited site/domain, rather than url. But for the bookmark items, I feel the user is trying to navigating through an existing fixed/chosen structure. Arranging them in logical groupings should help there more than "most recent". More formally, I see the use case for history items is: - I want to go back to somewhere I've just been recently whereas the use case for bookmarks is: - I want to find something in my personal collection This is of course just my opinion based on the way I use bookmarks and history.
