The threading/crash protection stuff sounds interesting, but I'm tired of hearing about all these new, awesome UI innovations that have existed in Firefox and Opera for half a decade. Firefox is also an offender in this space. Tabs on top? Oh my! How innovative! How about tabs on the left and right? And nine 'quick link' panels on your default tab? I've been enjoying that in Opera for two years now, thank you. Same with fraud and phishing protection, etc. I can understand their need/want to 'sell' this to people that only care about that stuff, but focus on the cool technical stuff and stop passing off the current state of the art in browser UI as something new. -Matt -- KPLUG-List@kernel-panic.org http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
