I can only say it's a showstopper for me and probably for lots of other people (else why every other browser on earth would have implemented it), and if the epy people do not care enough about *me* to implement it after all this time (given that it was reported repeatedly), why there are lots of other browsers available. (plus the argument could be made that the wheel itself is redundant with arrows, page up/down, special windows keys so it could be dumped altogether - however it's the *most* convenient alternative so that's what people want) Anyway I'm not objecting to the epy people choosing to follow their own way, it's their project, it's just that IMHO with the official GNOME/Fedora endorsement (that they got almost for free from day one) they also got the obligation to target the whole GNOME/Fedora user base and they've not been doing it well so far I fear. Despite all the noise Metacity raised it managed to capture most GNOME users in a short time. Contrast it with Epiphany which is *still* struggling to establish itself over Galeon, Mozilla and now Firefox. Regards, -- Nicolas Mailhot
