==Opinions on the Home and Go buttons==
==Opinions on the Home and Go buttons==
I think the 'Home' toolbar icon should stay where it has always been...next to the 'Stop' icon.  I think the 'Go' button should also be maintained as the default.  Both the 'Home' and the 'Go' buttons are familiar to non-savvy users coming from IE, and in particular I've seen these level of users use the Go button instead of hitting the Enter key.  The Home button proposal is something that was also discussed at http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?p=1190740 .  It appears a fair number of Firefox users in that forum do use the Home button (including myself). --[[User:Hkazemi|Hkazemi]] 15:22, 28 June 2006 (PDT)
