 A menu option would be needed for ButtonBar, or Keystroke, to work.

I don't know about Keystroke but that's not true for Buttonbar. If a
keypress is understood by an application but not in its menu, it still
works. Just tested it with PageUp/Down for NetSurf and they work but are
not in the menu structure.

Sorry, I misunderstood your comment. Having read it more carefully, I
agree with you. (My NetSurf ButtonBar already has the same PageUp/Down.)

I see that we now have normal access to the BBC news websites. Whether this
is something done by the Netsurf team or someone at the BBC taking note of
complaints I am pleased to see it happen.

I raised it as a technical problem twice, then as a complaint, and 
after they sent me an automatic response after ten days because they 
couldn't meet the target for replying I complained again. Looks like a 
few others did too! I still haven't had a reply.

It's something NetSurf did.  It no longer includes the CPU architecture
in the User-Agent string, because some cretin at the BBC decided that
the only web browsers running on ARM computers were those running on
mobile phones.

I decided there was no good reason for leaking processor architecture
information anyway.
