As a user I'd like to issue commands via the address bar in natural language so I can tell the browser what I want to do in my own words

GetSatisfaction user says: Currently, it seems like using all that space just to type in URLs is a bit wasteful. If you'd like another example, also look to Vimperator/Pentadactyl which combines the status bar/URL bar, and autohides the command line (which it uses for pretty much everything). Essentially, make sure the chrome is doing all it can.

Good luck, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about the project on the Mozilla Weblog.

We could include shortcuts to websites/services, eg typing "google" would automatically goto google.com Suggested by akami117; http://getsatisfaction.com/webian/topics/smart_search_in_the_url_bar

Include google instant search results in the omnibar. Suggested by Chris Hii; http://getsatisfaction.com/webian/topics/instant_search
