Look, if only 100 people used the internet, then disregarding 5% would
be acceptable. 2004 projections for people online worldwide is 710-945
million. 
So are you saying that 35-74 million users aren't worth your time? There
are plenty of Javascript and Flash based WYSIWYGs.

That depends.  If 5% of users are non-IE users, then I can't really
spend 
more than 5% of my development time on making things work for them, can 
I?  That's the downside to the non-IE compatible browsers.  Remember
when 
word processors *had* to be WordStar file compatible?  It's the same
thing 
with browsers.  I'm all for competition, but browser companies should
take 
note of OpenOffice - it can read MS Word formats well, and that's what's

making it successful.
