I CC'd the Dynapi.dev list on this too.
Thanks for letting me know this. On one hand it's good, easier detection, on the other hand we can't rely on the document.compactMode test to single out IE6 anymore, and will have to add is.ie6&&document.compactMode, but I guess that's fine, now we know this.
