In today's politics, it's impossible to know whether something is blocked simply out of spite for the other party, or out of genuine aversion for the bill.
Reminds me of this:
"Pournelle's Iron Law of Bureaucracy states that in any bureaucratic organization there will be two kinds of people: those who work to further the actual goals of the organization, and those who work for the organization itself. Examples in education would be teachers who work and sacrifice to teach children, vs. union representative who work to protect any teacher including the most incompetent. The Iron Law states that in all cases, the second type of person will always gain control of the organization, and will always write the rules under which the organization functions."
I found myself really disappointed by OO.o -- at least the Windows version. For all its faults, I found MS Office cleaner and much more responsive. Basically: as far as Windows office products go, I'm shafted.
Yeah, it'd be nice if NTFS received some updates other than just in new versions of the Windows. An easy way to use junctions would be nice. Symbollic links have been easily usable in Linux for a long time. . .

Yep.

How much of a non-issue is this? ;)

That browsers are passing it at all is great, regardless of who's developing the browser. It helps reinforce the standard and promotes competition.
Me too. If it weren't for Galactic Civilisations 2, I'd be using my Linux partition -all- the time.
