→The bookmark "inbox"
As shown, this capability would be alongside the current bookmarks menu and toolbar. Bookmark|Add Bookmark would still work, and would still default to the menu for those used to it.
However, it would be nice to unify the bookmarks menu and bookmarks inbox so there isn't yet another place where you have to go hunting for bookmarks. Perhaps we can just import the bookmarks menu as-is, add new bookmarks at the top, and add the read/unread capability. The "star" button would just be the quick way of adding something to the bookmarks menu. The danger is that this would surprise people who actually use the bookmarks menu and are used to new things going at the bottom. In this scheme, the small drop-down arrow next to the star button would only be used for tagging options.
''Open question #1:'' Is this the best way to expose the items in the inbox? First, the target of the small down arrow may not be big enough, and is not obvious for many new users. Perhaps we want to add a separate button like IE?Perhaps unifying with the bookmarks menu is the right way.
''Open question #2:'' How can we better present this list? The mock-up menu is only an improvement over the bookmarks menu because new ones appear at the top. Perhaps we should have "last week's bookmarks", etc. sub-menu at the bottom. It would be really great if we could get a scrolling view of all of them in that popup.
