Bookmark Patch Praise, Suggestion



About a week ago I built w/ the Peter's latest bookmark patch and I must
say, after using it a bit I find it very intuitive and natural. I guess
I just wanted to throw one more vote in for its inclusion in the main
CVS branch.

Peter,

One suggestion ... It seems to me that 'title headers' should be shown
for all 'hierarchal' topics. After time when quickly scanning over
bookmarks it is not always going to be intuitive which topic a
collection belongs to.

For example:

http://sweb.uky.edu/~mbselv0/bm.png

Within the main category 'Fun' is the category 'FFTA' for a few web
pages I've got bookmarked regarding the GBA game Final Fantasy Tactics
Advanced.

The titles of these pages though:
	
	FAQs and Guides
	Job FAQ
	Jobs Graphic

in no way indicate the topic they belong to. I've thought about it and I
do not think it should be the user's responsibility to rename the
bookmarks to represent the topic. IE, I should NOT have to rename each
bookmark to:

	FFTA FAQs and Guides
	FFTA Job FAQ
	FFTA Jobs Graphic

(this is especially true for a topic with a large number of bookmarks)

We cannot also count on web page authors to always have comprehensive
and concise titles for all of their pages.

In order to remedy this, I think a subtle title above each hierarchal
topic would do the trick.

Thoughts?
