Which may sound pessimistic to some, but there is at least one case of a  
  non-standard feature disappearing: the ALT text that was displayed in  
a bubble in Netscape 4 (and still is in IE) was gone with version 6. 
 
What other features once supported by a brand of browser has disappeared  
in a subsequent version?
