 == Bookmark pulls up already active tab/window ==
 This is a pretty simple one.  I presently have 20+ windows open and lots of tabs as well.  I want my slashdot tab, not a new slashdot tab/window.  It would be very nice if my slashdot bookmark when clicked on any browser went and got focus on a slashdot tab/window.  This would save me from my own poor web browser taxonomy, but then we know that ad-hoc human taxonomies always suck.  I hope thisis of use, please keep up the excellent work on this browser, I regret I don't have the skills or time to help more.
+== Bookmarks with expiration date ==
+Add option to add an expiration date to a bookmark.  It should be possible to specify the expiration date as both absolute and relative dates, e.g. on "Dec 13, 2008" and "in 5 days".  When a bookmark expires, it is automatically archived (not deleted) and no longer visible except in a special folder "Archive".
+This will help keeping a clean list of more permanent bookmarks.  It addresses several use cases, e.g. "I will read that news article today, if I have time", "I want to have quick access to the soccer scores while the Olympics are on", "checking the status of a friend's flight arriving today" etc.
