• Bugs

  • Revisit real-time updates, which seem broken now with folder views
  • Does feed hiding actually work well?

• River UX

  • Should seen items further up the page get removed from the DOM after awhile, to clear up memory for infinite scroll?
    • Can I reverse-infinite-scroll to get them back?
  • Real-time updates to feed display currently visible when new items come in.
  • Update folder nav list in response to bookmark observer seeing folder add / move / remove
  • Rework flat list of functions for UI handling into object wrapped around worker instance for index UI
  • Make page header float down along with scrolling, anticipating that it may hold UI controls in the very near future
  • Find a way to make feed title dividers float down, so that it stays visible as long as items from that feed are visible.
  • Add first-run panel with doco on the addon, hide after first run
  • Preference for iframes auto-expanding when visible
  • Pref for # of items on page
  • Sharing / read later / star it / flag it buttons
    • Store read-later items as plain old bookmarks in another bookmark folder?
    • Star as annotation for filtering?
  • Make clicked / visited items disappear after a little while?
  • Key modifier (eg. alt?) to toggle summaries for entries within a feed?

• Chrome UX

  • Some indication that a feed refresh is in progress
  • Switch from notification box to popup notification?
    • https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Using_popup_notifications
    • https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript_code_modules/PopupNotifications.jsm
    • https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Components.utils.import
  • Find some better images for widget icons in addon-bar
  • Hide feed detection notification after a few seconds?

• Live Bookmarks augmentations

  • Retain past items, up to a limit, when parsing new items from feed?

• General intelligence

  • Look into thin-server RSS sync for item status
  • Only show new stuff
    • Using history and visited links for cues
    • Sync with Google Reader somehow?
    • Use a thin-server RSS sync?
  • Look into pubsubhubbub to somehow trigger livemark updates
  • Do smarter stuff with visit count, so feeds from more visited pages get higher priority
  • Expose control to change the refresh timing of live bookmarks (could be hazardous)

• Misc
  • Split feed detection / notification out into its own dedicated addon?
  • Build a log of livemark feed processing events

    • of new items by date

    • HTTP failures, feed parsing errors
  • Delete / archive livemarks that fail 3-5 times?
    • Could be problematic if machine is just offline, or some other global problem
  • Rework flat list of functions for UI handling into object wrapped around worker instance for index UI?
  • Allow filtering by tags on Live Bookmarks
  • Configurable URL patterns for sites to ignore for feed detection
  • Currently deferring opening notification box until tab is visible - is there any way to open a notification box on a background tab?
  • L10N... someday?
