If I may offer a counterpoint - I rarely can remember what URL I've been going to before, past the domain part. It seems to me you're differentiating between two bugzillas by the domain they reside in - I'd be doing the same thing, and typing either "gno" or "moz" to reach either. This is particularly relevant to sites which cross-reference to different hosts like "news.foobar.net", "cvs.foobar.net", "www.foobar.net", "international.foobar.net" etc. To me, they're all foobar.net, and that's where I'd be looking for them. -- Osma Ahvenlampi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.fishpool.org _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
