A few suggestions (may not be entirely possible/realistic for 0.6): 1) Integration of Firefox Password Manager into Ubiquity: The idea here will be to be able to login into sites for which the user has saved the login information right from Ubiquity. For example, a command Login will list all the saved sites and one can select the desired one, hit enter and log into the site. 1Password for Mac has employed a similar concept for the stored login information through hot keys.
2) Ability to Syn Firefox data through Weave. A command allowing user to sync bookmarks, history, saved passwords etc. between computer and Weave server right from Ubiquity. I think it will be quite useful. 3) Along the same lines, the ability to view/search/clear browsing history from Ubiquity. Will allow a quick access to a previously visited page. An extension of the concept could be a full scale access to recently closed tabs, recently visited pages, most visited pages, in other words, Google Chrome's New Tab Page summoned with a hotkey!!!! 4) Integration of Mozilla Firefox Addons into the Ubiquity. So that addons can be searched, installed and uninstalled in a less painful manner. My dream remains the ultimate integration of Ubiquity and the Awesome bar!!!!
