As a site developer, I definitely would want some reassurance that I'm not going to be slammed with a constant stream of requests. So while I don't know if I need the ability to customize it, I need some kind of information. Does this happen constantly while the user's browser is open? How often? Does it happen every time the bookmarks menu is opened? Is there any kind of bound? What happens in failure - does it retry? what's the backoff mechanism? | |||

As a user, I'd like to know - what information does this feature leak to site developers? Do the requests happen the whole time my browser is open? Do they contain my cookies at the site? Actually, even if the answer to the last question is "no", the URL could be unique to me, web bug-style. Is there a way to turn the feature off? An easy way to know if a site is using it? | |||
