What's with this?

The midpass filter by Tantek Celick, a way to serve style sheets to IE 5 or 5.5 only.

serving stylesheets to IE Mac only, aka the iemacbandpassfilter.
On a related note do people use the midpass filter ? And if so, did you experience problems with this ? I have received various reports from people telling me that IE Mac was also reading that CSS file. But I haven't seen a common cause to it. One suspect is the way the style sheet is called: root relative paths seem to work fine. document relative paths seem to cause problems.
If anybody has more on this, I'd like to hear. I can add them to the IE Mac bug list (see sig).
