so what you're saying is that we need a browser that has many different features that can be enabled/disabled with no cost to performance. i haven't worked on any really large scale projects, but what i'm envisioning is this: a complex ./configure that would let the user pick and choose features to be compiled in.
do you want mouse gestures? (y/n)
do you want tabbed windows? (y/n)
do you want control over javascript behavior? (y/n)
and you can probably think of even better examples. why hasn't this been done? and if it has been done, how come i haven't seen it from under my rock?
