I know its not the best solution but it'll help. It'll help with those that bother reading the release notes, and then branch out to other sites as well. Not a large percentage of any user base. It doesn't do a thing for Joe User who downloads Netscape/Mozilla looking for something a bit better than OE and doesn't see any nifty new features on first glance. And it doesn't address my main point -- userContent.css *is* a preference file IMO, it should be installed by default with sensible values (and extensive comments if possible). It's mainly going to be edited by the advanced user, but it's usefulness isn't restricted to them -- i.e. your average newbie is going to want features that depend upon it (such as colored quoted text), and they shouldn't be required to become advanced users before they even find out about the option, let alone figure out what to do... -- J.B.
