[Vimperator] Ideas and itches

[Oliver]

First off, thanks to the people in the mailinglist who helped me with make
installing from CVS - it worked nicely in cygwin. Bookmark keywords now work
lovely.

Second, I don't have hint-a-hint installed and never have as many as 30 tabs
open. If you want to, I can do some testing around with it anyways.

Now, to the meat of this mail:
1) gt and gT are slow, and :b is horrible to use. Would it be possible to
have a function very similar to the f-command, where you instead got labels
on your tabs? The tab farthest to the left would be A, then S, D, etc, or
whichever system you are already using for links in web-pages. They keys s
and d would be ideal for this purpose.

2) We can't see where links point to unless we hoover over them. This can be
solved by showing this location in the vimperator statusbar when the url has
been chosen with the ; quick-hint command, but before any action has been
taken.

3) Not all pages render quick-hints correctly, even though I've seen talk in
the mailinglist archives about it. Examples include programming.reddit.comand
helgon.net. A reddit reader I met on IRC said that hint-a-hint functions, so
maybe taking a look at their source for hinting would also be a good idea?

4) When searching with the / command, the enter key should have the same
effect as the escape key (as per vim).

5) We need a command for bringing up the Organize Bookmarks window. :org,
:ob or :organizebookmarks would be excellent.

6) List-boxes and drop-down boxes need to be navigatable using j and k.
Perhaps going for overkill and even adding J and K (or gg/G) for Home/End,
and /-searching inside them? Perhaps not.

I don't really know where to put these in TODO, or if I would be allowed to
do so (or how to operate CVS), so I'll leave this to anybody who feels
compelled.
