Comments Grauw
If I may ask, how does this give added value compared to the existing page info window? I don’t really see a convincing use case for also having a similar window as a ‘bottom-bar’... Might as well add a source view bottom-bar as well then, and who knows what else.
Comments Stmoebius
As I just noticed that the mozilla.org homepage features a creative commons license: Shouldn't such information be given in the info window as well?
Comments Daniel Schierbeck
I'd like two more tabs added to the info window: "privacy" and "feeds". Privacy should hold information related to the W3C P3P, though I'm not sure if that's finished, and "feeds" should list RSS and Atom feeds, and allow the user to subscribe to them.
Comments Sami Huhtala
The RSS and Atom feeds are basically just links (link rel="alternate"...) and are already shown in the "Links" tab. One possible solution to make them more prominent is to add that fancy little orange icon before the line (or use light orange background, or something similar). Could title "Links" be renamed as "Links and feeds" or is it too long/cryptic?
I agree about the "Privacy"-tab. It could be similar to View Cookies extension and possibly add other relevant information too.
I use a lot extension named livehttpheaders as it is easy to check information about the server response. Could this be partially (not the realtime-mode) intergrated to info window too? There is information which could quite neatly go to the Security tab before text "Web Site Identity Not Verified" (like information about the server "Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) (Red-Hat/Linux) PHP/4.1.2",redirects "Redirected from url xxx.xxxxxx.xx with header: HTTP/302 - Moved temporarily."). OR in the "General"-tab there could be button "Show headers" / "Show full headers".
Where did the "Forms"-tab go in the above mockup?
