    This sounds acceptable to me, but for those gregarius users who are
    a) already used to the current method, where clicking the bookmarklet
    automatically adds the feed to the "/" folder, and
    b) not really so obsessed about categorizing or organizing their feeds
    
    it might be better to add to the current functionality by adding the
    feed to "/" and making the landing page different, with the edit form
    on it.

    But like I said above, it might be disruptive to existing gregarius users.
    
    Thanks for the reply, Marco, and if I have a bit of time, I'll try
    hacking my local copy to do this.
