Boris, Here's a follow-up on the bookmark and history divergence issue you raised. Since I already had fallen into the situation of having all of my Fx browsers using the same, default profile, I tried removing its places.sqlite database, and when I next ran Gran Paradiso that database got recreated (together with the other relevant files) based on the current history and bookmarks for my Fx2. So it appears that's all I'll need to do when Gran Paradiso progresses to the formal Fx3 release and I start using it seriously. At that point my Fx2 will become like my Fx1.5 (I'll only run it occasionally to check "backward compatibility" issues) and I won't care about its bookmark and history divergence. I presume there won't be any divergence issue for Minefield at that point, and so I needn't use a separate profile for it (though I've created one).
When the Places Manager starts being tested in Minefield, should any layout issues for that be directed here, or to mozilla.dev.apps.firefox?
