Browsers

Opera has it closest to right.

Opera appears to be an MDI, a multiple document interface! This is perfect for web pages! I should allow pages to put up maybe 16 pop ups... (the user should be able to put limits on things, such as CPU usage and other things)...


The web page should have absolutely no control over the browser, or the host operating system. Period. There shall not be a way for a user to grant access to the OS from the browser. An entirely different interface is needed for that. That's why there are file browsers.

A browser should be ran as it's entirely own user. It's possible to have programs operated by multiple users on the same desktop. Each user should have a Username-browser user whos home directory is /home/username/browser The user should be able to view files in the browser section, but the browser should hvae no access to anything other than that folder.

Firefox barfs on really long pages. Firefox should not be renderingeverything all the time. It should download the content, and render it on the fly... dumping memory for stuff that's not on screen. There is no reason for firefox to take up 99 percent of my cpu and 1.5 gigs of ram.


Only the
Popup, should be entirely contained by their parent window.
