Anyway, bookmark sharing etc. as described is 3 hours of programming for most web apps/teams (and has been replicated by almost every player on the planet for the last five years). Not sure why folks and bloggers still get excited about it - maybe the schematic looks somehow official, or metadata made it sound high tech.

Mozilla needs to do something useful. I suggest simply switching on inline SVG in plain HTML, for example. Or just mimicking IE for 6 months for the good features.
