Title: IDEA: links in Firefox followed by icon if the URL already exists in bookmarks
Post by: junkforaaron on January 05, 2008, 04:09 AM: I have seen programs that indicate the filetype of a link's url by displaying a small icon after the link.

I would like a small icon (a star?) to appear next to any links on a page that are already present in my huge bookmarks list.

I have an extension that detects duplicates and pops up a dialog if it I try to add a link that is already present, but it would be nice to know i already have it just by looking instead of finding out after taking the time to try and bookmark it.
