In new macos x finder windows, there's this little button on the right
side of the titlbar. When you click it, it slides the toolbar up. Boy-
Oh-Boy, I really like this.
I don't use it so often in the finder, but when I'm surfing the web, I
like often like to hide the toolbar and just use the keyboard to navigate
(I know...I'm wierd...I even like browsing in full-screen mode...I once
started a petition to get M$ to bring this feature to their Mac IE client
<http://scorpion.sparkart.com/~scott/>) It would make my life a lot
easier if OmniWeb had a button like this. That way, everytime I open a
new browser window I wouldn't have to type <shift-apple-n> <shift-apple-
f> <shift-apple-l>. This get's so repetitive.
Oooh, here's another idea, what if new OmniWeb browser windows (woah)
could remember the 'toolbar visibility' state of their parent (opener in
javascript, i think) window.
Keep up the good work.
