OK, I know why... but, given the original Mozilla goals to be very
fast and small: aren't skins in complete opposition to that?
*Especially* small size!
As a general principle, it is basically inefficient (performance,
development time, feature completeness, bugs) to redevelop all
controls that the native OS provides perfectly well.
As a first goal at least, wouldn't it have been best to aim for an app
that had the basic framework for skins, but didn't actually require
them?
Seems like original mozilla goals got hijacked and replaced by the
desire to be the "gee whiz" browser...
Another dissappointed user.
PS. The rendering seems to be very good, although ironically doesn't
seem to have solved all the problems that netscape 4.7 had... but not
better than IE...
