Favourites icon in the items and for authors
I have an interesting suggestion:

Often, when we click on the "Add favourite" icon, we are informed via a pop up page that the item or author is "already a favourite". Similarly, when we are done with participating in an interactive item like an auction or something, we wish to remove those items from our long list of favourites. Both these things take up time. The removal of an item is a tedious process if one doesn't remember which folder he/she had put the item into on an earlier date.

Now imagine that we could have a favourite button with an oblique bar or line across it in place of the normal hand with the ribbon. If an item or author is already a favourite in our list (the server would know that, would it not>?), then we should be able to see the same hand and ribbon with the oblique bar or line across it. This would tell us at a glance that the item is already a favourite; it would also allow us to remove a favourite painlessly without the need to open a separate My favourites page, searching for the required item and then deleting it.

Wouldn't that be really kewl?
