Again, if certain parts become too great of a risk (ie, Gecko
security issues too difficult to fix), reduce HTML rendering
capability as is necessary to minimize/eliminate the risks.<br>

<i>I think this is really a bit of a bad idea from a champion of
user choice in user interface and customization. You want the
program flexible in the area that of customization that interests
you, but in the area of HTML rendering you want to "lock it
down".<br>

I am looking forward to a time when we can see the full impact of
HTML5 in email. Thunderbird currently supports much more of it
that some other providers and therefore it is not getting the
traction that it deserves. But I am dead against locking things
down to a small subset as Gmail has done, holding up non text
email up as a result. All in the name of security. Not
supporting scripting languages I accept and understand, as I
support no Flash. But Thunderbird must support the HTML
specification as it stands now and into the future.<br>
