the suit, and my comment, are not about Internet Explorer. The bigger issue is the handling (or lack thereof...) by MS of java support in XP and IE. The suit doesn't have anything to do with Netscape.
I think that the windows interfaces available to "higher-level Windows applications" (not just IE) would be more interesting to examine that IE source, which as you pointed out would probably not be of much worth.
...the suit is also seeking access to the APIs used by Microsoft software and the IE source code. Would be interesting to see if there are "hidden interfaces" exposed in the Windows API.

...yeah...like this affects the slashdot crowd much...
