I would suggest having something like a notification pop-up,
like I have 
modified one of your pictures into:

Yellow to emphasize that it's a notification that appears
for like 10 
seconds if one has that enabled - yellow is the colour for
that in the 
ajax-world as many may know.
The notification-pop-up from the URL-bar icon would show the
more hidden 
preferences of a website - like all the metadatas in the
likes of RSS, 
microformats etc. but it could maybe also if the site is
secure.
If I click the icon - maybe I should get a pop-up-thing
again or maybe a 
sidebar or a dialog should open showing all of the info
found.

Perhaps that would be a good solution and just to add - I
made this 
mockup, but I'm not behind making anything Firefoxy - I'm
just a swedish 
webdeveloper who's interested in microformats and the modern
web ;)
