I think a quick way of accessing bookmarks with the mouse (with the
keyboard you can always use the location entry) might be a reasonable
request, so it's worth revisiting it with the Design Team. As for the
bookmarks bar we are just trying to minimize as much as possible the
permanently visible UI elements in the screen, and we thought that overall
the bookmarks bar was claiming too much space.

Of course an extension could be written to just add it back, probably
re-using some of the code of the original. And please let's not go into the
"If X does not happen I'll stop using epiphany". This is always a
possibility and I understand some people might dislike the direction we are
taking, but I don't think stating it as a "threat" in a discussion adds
much value.

Cheers,

Xan
