[precipice]

Marco has mentioned before that the bookmarklet is his biggest support headache. If the current bookmarklet is working for you, there's little reason to take that away; but having some other way for people to get a good experience from Instapaper -- something easier that anyone could use without knowing what a bookmarklet is -- makes tons of sense.

He does kill features from time to time, but he always seems to mention that those features were very lightly used. Presumably that's not the case here (since otherwise it has been hard to make the app valuable, before this new feature).
