Well, it would mean building these at least to a basic level.
That would be some or most of the effort toward doing an A/B test, which
would give us quantitative data.
One possible path forward is to stick with the open search field for now if
testing the alternatives requires several weeks of work (which is likely).
Hence, getting some feedback for now both internally and from the mobile-l
list would give us some input into deciding the next steps.

It is still true that we will pursue a way to hide any toolbars until
they are
requested by the user.

The first alternative would be significantly modified in the iPhone
browser
because there is already a toolbar at the bottom.
