I just upgraded to Firefox 3 and the AwesomeBar (which replaced the standard address bar) has thrown off my usage patterns.

I used the FF2 address bar dropdown as a quick-access list of my most frequently visited pages. I type/paste URLs for sites I use often, thus adding them to the list. With a history retention of 90 days, pages I didn't access frequently would be removed, while pages I accessed most often would "fall down" to the bottom of the list.

Now with FF3, I have lost this quick access list. But, was this a bad usage pattern to begin with? It's faster than accessing bookmarks, and dynamic to reflect real usage. How do you all get by without the FF2 recently used address list? Or do you not mind the AwesomeBar?
