Hello Neil,

It is. Although maybe not what you expect (or hope for);
Mozilla made their choice. It was, essentially, "Trust us, we know what
we're doing". TBH, pretty much all software developers make that
choice. Maybe not as overtly, or as patronisingly, as Mozilla did, but
hey. I could, I suppose, have been reading Moz's tone wrong, but given
the noise made at the time it appeared I was not alone in my thinking.
_Our_ choices are:
1) toe the Mozilla line
2) learn a little about the inner workings of Ff
3) use something else
I opted for 3, having found 2 too difficult for me and 1 being
unpalatable when Australis(a) arrived.
(a) Photo-realistic gfx capabilities on most computers, and we're going
to make everything grey. FFS.
