You know this is not gonna happen. Why don't you just try to look at the case in a sensible way, and not exaggerate it in all possible directions? Nobody wrote they wanted RIT to drop everything (especially IMAP, but you could place anything instead) and focus on a browser engine better than Gecko (would take more than 3 months anyway). This topic is not about HTML support, but about external images downloading. Except it is linked with HTML it has nothing to it. It's more about http. External images downloading is NOT about comic book. With as much right I could say, that your IMAP support is just for you to play after work, and as such doesn't require much attention nor priority. Technical tools are just that -- tools. You can use them in different ways. The same applies to external images downloading -- it can be useful in everyday _*WORK*_. And Ritlabs said many times, that different people work on different areas. I wouldn't be afraid that everything else would get dumped. Of course *some* resources would have to be spent on the feature discussed, but I believe that only to a sensible extent, and it would benefit many users. After all there *is* a reason why this discussion comes back again and again.
