== What does Camino have? ==
* Address Book
** We list address book entries in the bookmark manager
** We have Show and Add context menu items for mailto: links
** We do form fill using the Me card

* Mail
** We send links to any system default mail client
** We create new mails in any system default mail client

* Bonjour
** We list available severs on the local network

* Spotlight
** We allow spotlight to search trough our bookmarks

== What does Camino lack? ==
Below is a list of features that could be implemented to create a tighter integration with Mac OSX.

=== Parental control ===
* Black list: a list of websites a user can't access. A sheet will show and lead you to a blank page.
* White list: a list of websites a user can access. Trying to access any other pages will not be possible. I'm asuming this would have bookmark bar integration.
* Perhaps a way for parents to lock preferences?

=== Mail ===
Several other browsers offer toolbar items that make a direct link with what ever Mail client you have set to default (sys prefs). This creates a situaion where the apps are more intimitly sharing information.

This same idea could be aplied to RSS readers and what not.

* Create a Mail toobar item, which has a popup with the following options.
** Send Link.
** Send Page.
** Read Mail.
** Create New Mail.

=== Spellcheck ===
* Provide a way for users to easily access the spellcheck libraries when editing text oon webpages.

=== Dictionary lookup===
* Provide a way for users to lookup selected text in the system dictionary.
* Enable the dictionary feature that show explanations of in the browser.

=== Send image to iPhoto===
* Perhaps other iphoto integration?

=== iSync, .Mac.===
* There are QuickPicks available to backup a users profile.
* Provide a way for users to easily backup and share their bookmarks using iSync and .mac Backup.

=== Drag images to other applications ===
* We currently lockup and crash when users try and do this.

=== Send complete page to Mail===
* Instead of just sending a link to mail we should also provde a way of sending the html to Mail, similar to the way we do with Save HTML complete.

=== Applescript support===
* Provide a way for users to easily access features using Applescript.

=== Automator support ===
* Provide an automater plugin and script suites to allow easy automation of tasks.

=== Downloads ===
* Give the "Open With..." contextual menu option in the download manager.

=== Address Book ===
* Allow users to easily edit their Me card from camino, either we direct to and open AddressBook or we could even show a sheet?

=== iLife? ===

== Some other ideas ==
* Add downloaded images to iphoto automatically.
* Add downloaded songs to itunes automatically.
* Add downloaded movies to the itunes library automatically.
* Filter downloads and place them in the (Pictures/Movies/Music/Documents/Desktop) corresponding user folders (look at Aqcuisition).
