What's with all this 0.9.9 nay-saying ?
I use Mozilla as a browser (not as mail, not as IRC, not as HTML
creator, not ...). So far, I have __not__ encountered __any__
new situation where Mozilla 0.9.9 has prevented me from browsing.
[No crashes since the 0.9.9 release (2002031114).]
I am of the opinion that some Mozilla 0.9.9 failures can be avoided
by the user. For instance, when I don't like the download dialog
showing wrong numbers, then I press <shift> as I click on the link.

p.s. I finally got it !!
I was coming from the latest 0.9.8 daily, and things did not
go worse for me with 0.9.9.
The users who complain are coming from an earlier *release*,
and have not been gradually conditioned to accept quirks that
first appeared in dailies.
Well, lots of people (from other platforms as well as OS/2)
have made changes to Mozilla since the time of those releases.
The users who are suddenly faced with 0.9.9 need to decide
which is more important to them --
"ok" things 0.9.9 does that the earlier release didn't
or "bad" things 0.9.9 does that the earlier release didn't
