The update to 1.0.3 was for security reasons, it closed some vulnerabilities
which were classed as critical. Personally I would rather that maybe the
themes don't work properly, but the vulnerabilities are gone...
BTW, I've upgraded 8 machines to 1.0.3 (Linux 7, Windows 1) and haven't seen
the problem with the disappearing bookmarks on any of them...
