I like the idea but I would like it to look and work more elegantly. What I have in mind, if we can manage it, is leaving minibuffer-input as flex 0, making the background of the url-panel -moz-field color just like the input area, and somehow styling the text so it looks "auxiliary" at a glance. My first two thoughts were to either gray it or shrink the font a bit. Graying is tricky because of the limited number of system colors we are allowed to use. Shrinking the font is tricky because then we have to worry about aligning the baselines. -- John Foerch _______________________________________________ Conkeror mailing list [email protected] https://www.mozdev.org/mailman/listinfo/conkeror
