Easier than using the mouse, yes. But it still seems a lot slower than
using nicknames in Galeon (and Mozilla I think?). Make a nickname for
the bookmark called 'pers'. Then type pers in the URL-bar and hit
return. With short nicknames it is very fast.
I still don't get how Epiphany's bookmarks improve on the usual
hierarchical bookmarks most of us are used to.
