I think the point is that in galeon 1.3, you cannot add a bookmark
directly into a certain place of the bookmark folder, but only can
append a bookmark to a given folder. This forces you to then go to the
bookmark editor and move things around instead of just adding it to the
right place to begin with.

I can live with that, but hope that this misfeature will be fixed in a
next version or something.

As for the URL pasting thingy, you only have to open a new tab, and even
if you add the new tab button to your toolbar, you can paste an url into
it, and have it open the url in a new tab. Now you only need a similar
single paste technique for opening an url in the same tab.

I also miss the tab migration between different windows that was present
in galeon 1.2 but is only possible to detach tabs in galeon 1.3. But
then, again, i can live with that, until it is reintroduced again in a
next version.
