They would also be collected in a centralized and visible location. | * '''Extensions Point''': Create a place in the navigation bar for extensions.

** '''Not a lot of room''': Installing a lot of extensions will quickly fill the space. How to handle overflow? | |||
** '''How to handle extensions that aren't just an icon''': Some status bar extensions have text or horizontal widgets. | |||
* '''Full Link Text''': A proposed way to handle this would be to put it in the location bar. It would have unique styling to indicate "This is where you will go". It would have the perceived performance effect of making navigation feel faster. It would also continue to keep UI in the same location at the top of the window. | * '''Full Link Text''': A proposed way to handle this would be to put it in the location bar.
