No.  They already provide the function of "Make a copy (i.e., to disk)
of what I am looking at - but leave the current information on screen."

The original poster was referring to CUA91, which specifies that 'Close'
(in the 'File' drop-down) applies to the __window__ one is looking at.
I was saying that I preferred 'Close' to apply to the __content__ I was
looking at (since by selecting 'Exit' in the 'File' drop-down I *can*
get rid of the window).

p.s.  I use a browser as a BROWSER.  I do *not* want (nor use) it as a
      multi-purpose application (i.e., one with additional functional
      windows, which remain when the browser window is not displayed).
