I seem to recall reading somewhere that we were urged to show no mercy
to IE7, but to treat it as if it were a real WWW browser. If that's
the official policy, I'm only too happy to stick to it ;-)

[yes, I know it still has lots of non-standard features, including
some cases where it violates mandatory requirements of the relevant
specifications. But if we're supposed to treat it like a WWW browser,
so be it. Or perhaps that was only the beta? ]
