@Comment #189:
I would hope that Mozilla doesn't follow the Safari approach. It's very bad
when you're on dial-up and have to sit there waiting for content just because
someone feels that function should follow form. (And, contrary to an apparently
popular misconception, not everyone in the world has broadband or even has it
available.)

For an example of what I mean, try looking at the examples at
<http://www.alistapart.com/articles/cssatten> on a dial-up connection in
Safari. You sit there staring at a blank box for a long time (i.e., up to 10
seconds) while you wait for a very small amount of text to display. In terms of
rendering time, that's ridiculous. (And, to top it off, the fonts are less
readable than the standard system fonts.)
