    Well, the most glaring is the single-button for closing a tab. (I
spent some time with it before reporting- things change with it)  It's a
style thing, sure, but it's really annoying at times. It also means I
have to select that tab, to kill it.  Having them per-tab makes it
possible to narrow down the choices when you've found 'the' answer.

    But most of it appears to be there...maybe I'll just have to
convert.  I find myself doing that more and more these days,
XMMS->Rythmnbox, Galeon->Firefox and previously Netscape->Evolution. The
result's always been good, but the transitions are annoying...kinda like
the 'spatial' way that Nautilus works.  I've been learning it for
several months and it's still reminding me of Win3.1.  :>
