first off, this thread reminds me of a song that came out at the
turn of the 70's. "War". it had a kick-ass beat, it is a protest
song, but i still like it. so did every one in a disco club where
i was manager and head bartender.
in war, there is the line, "War. what is it good for?".
in a similar context, "Firefox. what is it good for?".
I get the impression that you completely missed the point of that
70's song…
oh?
was it not a protest of the Vietnam "police action", aka, war?
at least the one to which i reference, by Edwin Starr, appeared
as such to me.
[also, above, i should have used word _start_ instead of _turn_.]
i would hate to think that i had to go out on web and not have
'NoScript' and 'AdBlocker' available. just to mention a couple
of the add-ons that i use.
Konqueror has both ad blocking and per-site JavaScript blocking

i happen to have 18 active 'extensions', with 3 more disabled until
i need them. plus 8 active 'plugins'.
i dare say that konqueror or rekonq will/would/might come close.
yet, in reality, my point, which one missed, is that when it comes
to web browsers and email clients, it is like baskin-robbins, there
are many choices to make and that choice should be left to user.
not packages that are loaded by default when a new installation is
made.
