Mozilla's progress on this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55181 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=260839 (successor to the first bug) It seems from comment #101 in the first bug that they haven't even considered applying this to firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55181#c101 Which makes me think: Who the heck decides what makes it from Mozilla to Firefox? -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.
