That one is a much more significant change.  In particular, Empathy is
a relatively new application and this is the first time we're really
looking at it and getting an idea of what its status is.   Now I do
think it makes sense to evaluate these things continuously, I'd like
not to pull the browsers into the scope of this feature.
