	This is something that do like in DJBs programs:

	1 - they're all *very* small;
	2 - they're all *very* fast;
	3 - they're all *very* reliable;
	4 - they're all *very* secure.

	If other projects could use more of his design decisions, I'd
	guess that we wouldn't need 12341324TB machines with 1234GHz
	to type simple documents (lucky me, I use LaTeX). Both RAM and
	processor speed should be regarded as limited resources for
	programming.

	Unfortunately, I can't help with Mozilla, since I wouldn't
	understand the code. I do still believe the KISS principle
	in engineering.

P.S.: This wasn't meant as a flame, but just as a lamentation.
