The mockups in general look good — I'm a fan. I would only make two 
minor comments, however:

How do the set of tags in the Add Bookmark and Bookmark Properties 
popovers scale when you have a lot? Using a scrolled window? I have 
around one hundred.

It always confuses me that Send Link is in a context menu, rather than 
the header bar menu. Not many of the items in Ephy's context menu are 
really context-specific - most are in fact tab/page-specific. In fact, 
with the exception of Inspect, the only ones that are context-specific 
and that a non-developer would actually use (cut/copy/paste) seem to 
have been removed in the mockup. Wouldn't it be better to put 
cut/copy/paste back and move the rest to the header bar menu, where 
they are actually discoverable?
