I think that both the key-fetching fields (bulk downloads and fetch-a-key) should be immediately visible when opening the Browse Freenet and the DL/UL page respectivley.. Currently, they are positioned below the bookmarks and below the current download/uploads, respectively. That means, adding a couple of bookmarks and/or a couple of items to the queue, you'll have to scroll down to see the key fetching fields. Repositioning each field to the top of their respective pages would be a good thing IMHO. Also, the names. 'Visit a Freesite' may be a good name for the current 'Fetch a Key' field, no need to tell 'Joe User' that he could use that field for downloading files, he'll do that in the UL/DL page. Rename the 'Bulk Downloads' field to 'File Downloads' and change the text "You can paste a list of keys to download in the box below (one per line)" to a more concise "one key per line" Those simple changes, renaming + repositioning, would make it more obvious how to use them to the non-geek user.
