Not that I've ever used IE Tab or Coral IE Tab but just sitting here

contact the site to say "My SeaMonkey doesn't work with your site

Then I thought "Wouldn't it be possible to have this function built into
the Extension??" so that it happens automatically!
That would be nice. I do use PrefBar, although it's very rare these
days that I bump into a site that requires me to do spoofing.
When that does happen, I generally squawk at the site owner.
I've seen a number of sites that say they want Firefox (but accept
SeaMonkey). The ones that really irk me are the ones that say they want
Netscape 6. To me, that's indicative of an IE-centric developer, who
supports something else because he has to, but doesn't really care to
make the effort to do it.
Beyond that, for the sites that insist on Firefox as the alternative to
IE, for a lot, it seems to be that many haven't bothered to
differentiate between the browser itself and the rendering engine, and
for those who do, it would seem that many may presume that non-technical
users neither know nor want to know the difference -- it's easier just
to say "Firefox" as the majority option, rather than "an XUL browser".
If it's any consolation to us SeaMonkey users, I presume that Camino
users have the same issue.
