Great Idea! Can still use some polishing, though.
Feature requests:
* Higher resolution icon
* Customizable languages for Wikipedia with multiple icons
* Icons not always visible - only on mouse hover or while pressing [Alt]
* Open page scrolled down a little, so the first sentence of the text is at the very top (skipping title and all the Wikipedia infoblocks)
