How many sites completely blocks browsers with an unknown User-Agent
string? There are millions, I know, but how large a percentage of all
websites out there actually does this? If it's reasonably low, I'd still
say change it anyway and worry about the consequences later.
What would happen if we did that? Don't you think that one year from
now, many (most?) webmasters will be checking their sites with Mozilla?
