I probably misunderstood. I thought this would allow only 1 topic per 
bookmark, which certainly isn't what we want. But I guess you were 
talking about table names.

There are more l10n issues with default bookmarks. For instance, if a 
user first starts Epiphany in locale A then switches to another locale, 
the 'Search the Web' smart bookmark will still be in the A language.

There's also a bug open (can't find it back, gnome.org is down atm) 
about putting the default bookmarks in a localizable (xml?) file. At the 
moment, distributors are patching the Ephy source to put in their own 
default bookmarks. Clearly that is no ideal solution.
