it has been my experience that the outfits who use Harold down at the
Golf Club or Snake and Lizard at the Pub to give the management their
"Microsoft Only" policy are not ready to make an exception to that
policy for Sqlite.

That sounds great and all, but lucky you that you get to work in an

severely limit user freedom on company hardware. I'm not one of them,

'authorized' tools are installed on their systems for them by IT folks.
Which brings us back to the question of audience. It is not just the
coders that need to see the site. We have to be able to 'sell' SQLite
to managers and stakeholders that wouldn't know firefox (or databases)
from a hole in the ground. Often a glossy looking website (that works
in most browsers) is enough to reassure them that the code base is not
junk.
"Hey boss - we want to use SQLite."
"Sure what can you tell me about it?"
"If you just install firefox, I'll show you their website."

To spend time working around IE deficiencies is rather futile when a
simple fix exists for all users - load Firefox. It is a change which is
good for them in other ways so it is a Hippocratic change - "First, do
no harm".
