then it can only be stolen / lost through my own mistakes or incompetence.
However if it is stored in the Cloud then not only am I risking losing it through my own mistakes but also through those of other people.

You can still get your extensions (NoScript, IETab etc) if you turn on the Add On Bar. This is now a full XML toolbar rather than a status bar, which means you can drag other options down there (it's where my bookmark toolbar now sits).
Yes, it might get annoying that you can't always view the full URL of a link you're hovering over, but perhaps there are addons for this for people who miss this feature. I'm happy with it showing the URL in the main navigation toolbar, that way you can compare where you are with where you're going without having to glance up and down the page.
It means that I can find the sites that will be of interest to me much faster and will less back/forward clicks:- Type a query, have the results keep updating so I can see if what I'm typing is yeilding reasonably valid results, then when I've finished typing I can just preview the pages with a hoverover to check the content is actually valid and not just SEO keyword stuffed nonsense.
Isn't that what search engines should be doing: helping us find the most relevant sites as easily and quickly as possible.
