Also, remember the old firefox moto? "Take back the web"?
it's just changed to "Made to make the Web a better place."... can it get more Orwelian? :D
Give me back my browser control. and stop hiding my url bar, dammit! ...they start removing the protocol, nobody bothers. ha http, who cares? Then move a little to the side, 'to align with the tab'. Then will make it autohide. And before you notice the only way to go to a page is to use AOL^H^H^H GOOGLE KEYWORDS.

There's no reason to have a URL bar on the top of the screen all the time, just to enter a url manually.
A "Enter URL" menu item would Work just fine.
I think the pentadactyl[1]/vimperator[2] ui is nice; I can see the URL of the page I'm currently browsing, but it claims minimal screen real-estate.

having the url bar always visible had the added benefit of not promoting dumb thins like vignete cms url schema.
plus I more copy from urls than type then in in
