Comment (by azaozz):

 Been looking at how to best "extract" Press This and make it a plugin.
 Think we should keep the URL scanning, but remove/retire the bookmarklet
 completely. That will make it simpler and easier to maintain and at the
 same time will keep nearly all of the functionality.

 There is also the possibility to completely replace the UI with a browser
 extension/add-on. That was one of the ideas behind the last major update
 of Press This couple of years ago.
