When you say "Bookmarks", what bookmarks are you refering to? The galeon 
ones? The mozilla ones? The nautilus ones?

Favourites used to be a global list of apps that you often used, exposed 
in the panel menu and later also in nautilus using favorites:. We have 
nothing to replace this with, and doing a bookmarks: view with only the 
nautilus bookmarks is a) hard, because that code is nautilus-specific, and 
we need it in gnome-vfs, b) somewhat silly, since i think Nautilus 
bookmars are pretty useless.
