i have recently created a patch and submitted it to codereview http://codereview.chromium.org/14441/show
the patch adds a menu button to the right of the address bar and the menu gives a menu of all the bookmarks within the bookmark manager and allows for a user to navigate to their bookmarks without the need for the bookmark bar or opening a new tab and then going to the bookmark button. the patch was designed for generally speeding up access to the users bookmarks, as this is one of the most complained about missing features that i have heard while in offices and around the web and around irc. IE7 has the star button, IE6 had the old style dropdown menu, safari also has the old style dropdown menu as with IE6. firefox and opera also have similar features directly on the main interface without the need to waste extra screen real estate on another toolbar we dont need. as this is at most a 28 pixel reduction in the width of the address bar, this is a far better use of the screen than 24 pixels of height in the form of an additional toolbar removing from the actual browser visability. and as most people will only use the bookmark bar to access the "other bookmarks" button, this truly is wasted space.
