I also need feedback from people on the topic list combobox. Should we
remove it? Do people still want the flat list? Is anyone having trouble with having topics arranged by Selection/Subtopics/Others?

I've had a lot of trouble understanding the topics selector in the 
various mockups. I think it's quite a bit more complicated than the 
bookmark properties windows in other browsers, when the original idea 
of topics in Epiphany was supposedly making bookmark management 
simpler.
I think topics could be renamed to keywords, and entered in a single 
text field with an autocomplete menu.

A full menu of keywords would be available from the "+" menubutton next to the field.

And once del.icio.us suggestions were implemented, they could be presented as two buttons that would operate on the contents of the Keywords field.

I think that would be the kind of simplicity that people like Epiphany for.
