I'd like to propose gnash browser plugins being added to the desktop task.
A significant amount of websites nowadays use flash; significant enough
that most of our first-time users are troubled with the difficulty of finding
and installing a "suitable" flash plugin (which is often not that suitable,
given that it is propietary and buggy).
I use gnash regularly (in combination with adblock) and I think it's reasonably
mature nowadays. At least, it works for the most common flash sites, like
youtube.
CCing gnash maintainers as well.
