I certainly wouldn't put much stock in the html5 test he mentions. I
tested SM 27 with gstreamer, Firefox 30, Chromium, Opera Next, and
Opera... What was interesting is that the overall score didn't change
when I tested with WebM (with VP8  VP9 support) and gstreamer H.264
turned *off*. The tick boxes in the Video section changed, but the
overall score stayed at 449 for SeaMonkey 27, and 464 for Firefox 30.
Turned them back on, cleared cache (memory an disk) and even restarted -
no change in the overall score.

Regarding:
To be honest, it (the tab close button) would be one of the main
things, in my opinion, that would turn new users of SeaMonkey away.
I reckon that someone forgot to tell him that that is a (IMO) key
feature/advantage of SeaMonkey vs the Chrome lookalikes.


The scoring seems a bit out of proportion.  For instance, I got only 
5/20 just for having geolocation disabled.  That is deliberate - I do 
not want to be geolocated any more closely than my IP number allows.
