Comment (by humdinger):
I'm not sure I like it with tabs, because you have to move to the other
tabs to see what's there. A single list may work, with, in order (for
example, but that's open for discussion):
Generally, it's always a good to see everything in one glance. This is a
slightly different situation:
* we only show 8 lines in the popup menu (we don't want to obscure too
much of the current website, and I suppose a short list is quicker to
scan).
* having bookmarks, search engines, history, (and maybe keywords)
vertically in a single list means lots of scrolling to get from one to the
next.
* when we start typing, we almost always know what we want to do: search,
open a (keyworded) bookmark, open from history. Normally, we don't need to
see the tabs we're not interested in. Pressing down and left/right
accordingly should quickly enter muscle memory
