Firefox 3 Beta 5 Has now a quite good UI for plugins (Found in
Extra->Add-ons)

The feautures that makes me using Firefox 3 (Beta 5) are (in no particular
order)
* A recent version of GreaseMonkey that works and is fully compatible
* The WebDeveloper plugin (For web design I should test my sites in Firefox
anyway - when Epiphany uses WebKit - so this isn't a real problem)
* GMail notifier extension
* The new Places (it is very usefull, albeit sometimes slow)
* Minimeter (although I can live without this one)

The faeatures that would make me use Epiphany are:
* WebKit
* Gnome integration
* Smaller memory use / faster (but that is probably also part of WebKit)

So my main problems with Epiphany are mainly because of missing plugins, and
I think they are quite popular (WebDeveloper, Greasemonkey) or are
relatively easy to implement (Minimeter, Gmail Notifier). So I hope that
they can be resolved (I'm a programmer to, so maybe I'll take some time in
the future to implement them myself).

Greetings,
Nathan
