Thanks, the idea just popped in my head after the 1000th time copying
and pasting a URL from Firefox to TSVN, and I was wanting to learn how
to write a Firefox extension anyway.

I thought of the problem too of trying to figure out how to tell a
Subversion link from other links... I will probably add an option to
only show the menu if one is already in a Subversion-supplied page
(either the default page that has "Powered by Subversion" at the bottom,
or the specific XML markup if using XSLT).
