Cool ...

I guess life would also/mainly be easier for the users (faster JS engine,
etc).

If I had the power to make them install a plugin, I could probably also
make them use another browser ...

My first reaction was, that this plugin would solve the problem where the
users of my application are forced by their IT staff/polic(i)e(s) to use IE
(and are not allowed to install another browser) could just install that
plugin. Unfortunately, this requires Administrator rights and I guess that
the IT staff/polic(i)e(s)s won't allow installation of this plugin either
... :-(

Cheers,
Fritz
