Safari-influenced feature requests

[Eugene Lee]

With so much attention on Safari, it's made me think of a few things
that would spruce up OmniWeb.

- A single click on the "lightning bolt" URL icon in the browser window
  toolbar selects the entire URL (faster than a triple click).

- Drag a text selection of a URL into the browser window causes that
  window to open that URL.

- A toggle enables a status bar at the bottom of the browser window that
  does "the normal thing" and shows a link destination, browser status,
  or JavaScript window.status.

- Support the favicon.ico stuff.

- Truncate really *long* titles of bookmarks to prevent the mega-wide
  OmniWeb -> Windows menu.

- A Safari/playlist-like bookmark manager.  Since OW does not open
  multiple bookmark folders simultaneously, a single window interface
  makes more sense.

- Somehow synchronize bookmarks between OW and Safari.

- Support user-provided style sheets for font and color preferences.

- Add the character encoding to OW's Browser menu (the equivalent
  toolbar item takes up space I'd like to reclaim).

- Support more aggressive caching.

- New browser windows cascade should diagonally from top-left to
  bottom-right, like in days of old.  I really dislike the current
  behavior because it's harder to select rearmost browser windows.
  It makes me prefer Mozilla-ish ugly tabbed windows.
