Comments: Ben talks about Firefox' geek factor

Mozilla Suite has more polished UI then really over-featured Opera.

There's no RSS icon in my status bar and I want one!

The comment about the Tools Web Search menu item is one of the first things I noticed after installing 1.0 PR RC. When I clicked on it, it did nothing. After some searching, I did figure out that I needed to unhide the searchbar (which I had hidden), but it was initially confusing.

I filed http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=258682 to try to ease the geekiness of prominent features like RSS. Unfortunately, I didn't think up the bug until now, just when we have a freeze on strings for localization.

As it has been discussed before in other places, default toolbar buttons set is not optimal for new users as well. Go, Print and New Tab buttons need to be included right from the start.

WHY would you ever hide the google bar?!?

FF needs toolbar grippies like IE has quickly. Reason: extensions like the google bar are uncustomizable, it's anoying to do it button by button.........
