Again, for the record, this is an incorrect statement. K-Meleon is Gecko
with a native UI, not Mozilla with a native UI. (Where Gecko is the
rendering engine (HTML, CSS, DOM, etc) and Mozilla is the web browser.)
K-Meleon does it's own bookmarks management, history management, status
notification, has its own throbber, does its own autocomplete, does its
own profile management, and so on, and so forth. It is also missing many
features that Mozilla has, such as keyword bookmarks, the sidebar, a
history window, bookmark watching, etc.
