Bug Description

Big navigation bars waste valuable screen space and are U-G-L-Y! Maximizing screen space for actually viewing web pages is important. Chromium has done an incredible job at this. We can try to do the same with simple things like:
Merging the search and URL bar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343400
Star for bookmarks: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343401
etc, etc.

Of course, we shouldn't copy chromium, but make our use of space more efficient in the way we see fit. Bottom line though, we need to use screen space more efficiently.

This is fixed in Ubuntu 10.04. Epiphany now has only one toolbar by default. This doesn't seem to be webkit related, so I am closing that task.

Marking as fix released in Midori. You can search from the URL bar, the menubar is hide-able, and the toolbar is customizeable.
