I test it with your last commit.

To be honnest, I don't like it.
Not because font size and colors are not good (it can be improved). Because it 
doesn't give more feature than history panel and bookmark menu. Moreover, 
Konqueror have already something like that for bookmarks.
From chrome and opera, it misses webpage previews. (Perhaps we must take a 
look at this. I would like to see previews when mouse is over tabs.)
From IE it misses accelerators features, for instance: translate with windows 
live.


I propose something more KDEish: 

Use a plasma containment.

Have you seen the newspaper activity of plasma-netbook ?

I would like hear the advise of Ivan about that.
