Opera offers a clever filter function for bookmarks. You simply type something in the small search input field and it filters the bookmarks incrementally as you type. This is much faster and more intuitive than opening up a dialog with Ctrl-F. Opera only shows those bookmarks then, which match the search/filter string.

It would be nice, if Bookmark-Manager would have this possibility, too. Another way to implement this feature would be to allow the user to type anything directly without a special input field. The incremental filtering would work the same. To reset the filtering or to restart filtering for another search term, the user would simply press ESC.
