Chromium team is no different in this regard. No options, for anything. It is extremely annoying when they implement 'privacy-violating' features like the previously visited sites in the New tab (before you've entered a URL), with no option to disable despite pleas to give that option. Developers and other habits (perhaps not seen at Google internally) are apparently not important. Even privacy can be compromised at times. Most certainly Google mostly cares for those outside the organisation who 'evangelise' with the Google way of doing things. > So now every time I reply to something, I have to fight with GMail to > make sure I highlight the whole message manually first, making sure > not to have my selector accidentally slip outside the email text, and > *then* hit reply, which makes it quote it instead.
