I would challenge the decision to UPPER CASE keywords, it looks oldschool and is unnecessary since syntax highlighting is ubiquitous. And right-justifying is something that only looks clean for the simplest of queries and wreaks havoc with

bummer. I use live bookmarks extensively, it's nice to be able to see at a glance whether or not a blog or web comic has an update without visiting the site. anyone know of an extension that will provide this functionality?

I recall repne scasb was significantly slower than the equivalent loop unrolled a few times. Not sure if that's still the case but it was something like 2x slower.
