Neil?

This would be a great add-on. Wish I knew how to write them.

mark: not sure of any way to collapse the toolbars via the keyboard. Maybe Neil knows.

Any way to do this with a shortcut instead, so I don’t hav o take my hands of the keyboard?

New feature? Sigh. Even Mozilla 1.x had that feature, although you had to press Accel+Shift+L to get it.

Cool!

I’ve always wondered how to do something similar to the windows F11/Fullscreen in OS X.

Rob / Jesse: see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408007 about using the full AwesomeBar in the two other UI areas where it might make sense.

Ahh, so it’s like what Safari does in that situation, only gratuitously modal.

Jesse: yeah, gavin informed me that he broke this feature right around the time I blogged about it. Well done!

Zak: I agree and was thinking the same thing.

While I’m agreeing with people, I agree with Colin too, that it’d be super slick if the UI was a sliding text box with the awesomebar in it instead of a sheet.

Nevertheless, I still think it’s a great new feature.
