My question the Camino developers is this: are there any plans to roll some (or preferably nearly all) of CamiTools functionality into the browser? In particular, I'm quite hooked on immediate type & find, auto-completion, 'ignore autocomplete,' control over GIF animation, and the nice ad- and Flash-block features.
Nearly all of the functionality you are attributing to CamiTools is already rolled into the browser. The preferences in CamiTools are GUI for existing underlying preferences, not hacks to browser functionality. What's not built in, and what CamiTools provides, is the friendly, exposed GUI for those preferences--preferences that for the most part have been omitted from Camino's GUI because they don't pass the 80/20 rule (making them ideal for a third-party add-on like CamiTools). You'll continue to be able to use CamiTools for them as long as their names aren't changed in the underlying implementation, and afterward you'll still have the possibility of using about:config or text-file editing to set those prefs, if no-one else has stepped up to provide an updated power-user GUI pref controller like CamiTools.
