A bit funny, because my answer to the above question would be "JavaScript"
in more or less all cases.
The important part for me is that I can use Voyager when visiting
a majority of sites, and over the past one or two years JavaScript is
starting to be used more and more intensively. Today you very often see
a non-JavaScript site suddenly becoming a JavaScript site for no apparent
reason -- one is http://www.dds.dk which I previously was able to visit
without any problems -- now I have to search the source and the JavaScript
code to find the links I need and paste them to the location gadget.
Shockwave/Flash, Real Audio, PDF and etc. support is surely nice, but
I find it to be of less importance compared to JavaScript. Lack of any of
these features doesn't prevent me from ordering a new book or CD.
Similarly I find the entry of JavaScript in Voyager last summer to be
the most important improvement. Surely it is great that Voyager has become
ultra fast and so forth, but JavaScript was the big step forward. Now we
just need to have it working properly.
Similarly JavaScript would be the main reason for me to move to IBrowse.
I have never liked IBrowse (or AWeb), but if either of them can offer
a better useability, then it is perhaps worth to consider finding a new
browser.
So JavaScript is also my biggest want. I really don't have many comments
about the way you develop Voyager. Surely I would prefer to see updates
appearing more frequently, but we have to recognize that we are using
an obsolete computer that can't support full-time development, and I
don't think we can ask for much more than what we get today in this
respect.
