Initial implementation behind a nightly flag will occur in bug 1243558. Requirements: * Smart folder * Url association To let it ride the trains (this bug): * Probes * Time/date timestamp * Change the favicon * Update the snackbar confirmation text (i.e. indicate offline and button to show bookmarks list) * Display screenshot w/ intent v2 (if we decide to move forward with this): * Associate screenshots w/ full-page screenshots (e.g. PDFs) * Syncing * Clean up our references to the screenshots when they change on disk Bugs to implement to follow! :)

Also: * Using pages w/ screenshots to increase rating in frecency algo

Some items from bug 1243558 comment 11 need to ride trains: - How to disable this functionality? (e.g. invasion of privacy!) - Does removing an item from this smart folder remove the screenshot from disk or just FF's representation of it? * initial antlam thoughts: just FF representation

Why is this v2? This is more important than actually displaying things in a smart folder.

I'm of the opinion the folder is important in order to 1) avoid dumping things the user doesn't care about into their bookmarks (though you were talking about "hidden" bookmarks before – what did you mean by that?) and 2) to easily remove this feature if we decide we don't like it. Perhaps Anthony has a different opinion though?

My point about hidden bookmarks is now moot since these screenshots will be saved in a URL metadata table, not in bookmarks. My "hidden bookmark" comment was about the fact that these bookmarks would never really be visible outside the magic "Screenshots" folder. Using bookmarks was merely a way to get frecency weighting. Now that we are using URL metadata, it's not relevant. No screenshots would ever be saved into the user's bookmarks. We need to _add_ code to make them visible in a magic folder and _add_ code to make them weight frecency.

Using the "has been screenshotted" signal to weight the URL differently is likely going to be important. So, it's probably not a "v2" right now. And yes, I'd also like to have a smart folder of these screenshots rather than have them scattered amongst the Mobile Bookmarks root.
