another good reason is, that is just doesn't _really_ works. It is not 
ready for being turned on. Perhaps it is just me, but the bookmark icons 
go and come just as they want. I surf to one page, the icon is set in 
the bookmarks and one or two restarts later it is gone away...
Please work out a feature before you check it in!

        Niko!
