Fair enough.  I just don't like the extra dialog the options are in. 
I'd prefer if the options were in an optionmenu or some other dropdown
list.  It'd be quicker to use if you didn't need to aim at the little
button to close the window, instead you'd dismiss the 'menu' by clicking
anywhere else.

But it's not a big deal, just something I think could be done better.

Because we care, and gtk doesn't? ;)  Or alternatively it's an evil plot
to keep us busy with trivial stuff so that we don't notice how horribly
borken it otherwise is ;)

But yes, gtk should be able to add mnemonics automatically, and it could
also assign them optimally, and translators wouldn't have to be bothered
with them either...  Uhh, why do we need to care about them, really...?

Looks better and better after every iteration :)  Here's a few more:

- F9 should probably toggle the side pane (could we call it side pane?)
- search results should be sorted

I'm also wondering if duplicate bookmarks should be hidden from the
results.  IMHO, it would improve finding a bookmark (as in "I want to go
there") but it would be bad if you intend to remove the bookmark(s)...
