One-click Bookmarking
Personally, I think the "star icon" system exemplified by Flock is a good start for one-click bookmarking, although it does have some issues.
The benefit is that this is a true "one-click" bookmarking system by default. Default behaviour is such that clicking the star icon turns it from blue to orange and creates a simple bookmark. Clicking the star (orange) a second time brings up the bookmarking dialog, where the user can change the Title, add tags, keyword, notes, etc.
As shown below, however, the simple colour change is problematic in that it's not that drastic a visual change. For colour-blind folks it could be an issue, and I'm not sure what other accessibility issues there may be.
Bookmarks Sidebar
We could integrate Bookmark and History search, returning results from both, with default weighting such that bookmarked pages are shown at the top of the results list:
A simple drop menu could allow users to sort all bookmarks or Places search results in different ways:
Just an idea to add a small drop menu to the Bookmark Toolbar...
