Vista - Favorite Links?

Favorite Links?

Can someone please help me understand the Windows Explorer "Favorite Links"
pane.

What good is it?
What does it add to the navigation process that isn't duplicated in the
"Folders" pane that it takes space away from?
Why can't it be covered over by the "Folders" pane (as in 5536)?

If you can "Have it your way" at Burger King, why not in Vista?

Quick access to common locations that are not buried within the hierarchial
tree which requires the user expanding and searching for those locations.
