Personally, I don't think it's appropriate to remove a feature when
its replacement is an over-engineered piece of crap which is slow,
hardly bothers to interact with the rest of the OS.  But that
describes a lot of what the Mozilla project shovels out.  Take heart,
Xprint will probably start to be useful in a year or two.
