I agree. I love Camino and evangelize it as a great alternative to Mozilla. It does lack the GUI for prefs that you have Mozilla, which is a mixed blessing for the reasons Mike pointed out in his blog post Will quoted earlier in this thread. As a middle ground, I would just like to see the about:config functionality of Mozilla implemented. Then the geeky/curious experimenter would have access to the most off the preferences in a way that is innocuous enough that you never have to know about it, but if you do, it is a safe way to manipulate the prefs file, i.e. w/o introducing/eliminating any problematic/necesary characters.

What I have done in the past is use Mozilla to set up a prefs file and then just copy into my Camino prefs. This also works for certificates, when you need to add a cert to your cert db.

What do you mean by that, exactly? In what way would a "Camino" with "Mozilla" functionality differ from Mozilla itself or the stand-alone browser component produced by the Mozilla project, firebird?


I mean that I rather enjoy the Cocoa GUI of Camino, instead of the XUL GUI of Mozilla and Firebird, and I'd love to be able to use a Gecko browser with Cocoa chrome but with more options. Wishful thinking on my part, I'm sure, and I'm by no means complaining about the current choices I have. I was just thinking out loud; I should really catch myself before I hit "send" sometimes.
