[cap-talk] A petname toolbar for Firefox

I like the petname toolbar.
My toolbar is getting too crowded.
I think browser builders should allow more room, probably more than one 
line.
One hack that would help in this case is to make the petname take less 
space when it has nothing to say but untrusted,
When at a trusted site it is appropriate to occupy more space.

Some have argued that the pet name needs to describe your complete 
relationship with the site.
But then it is more than a "name".
An extension to the petname would be to make it into a link to a secure 
place where you keep a record of your relationship.

I don't have a significant relationship with more than one site.
