And now, of course, it does automatically upgrade, so I've got
mozilla-firefox on hold. I was going to upgrade it, since I *did*
generally like the performance when I tried it briefly, but I'm still
concerned about losing the Diggler extension. Sure, I could live
without it (and might have to), but the two features that it has that
I use most often aren't replicated in the new Digger extension ("clear
address bar" and "find in Google cache/archive.org"). There seem to
be mixed results when hand-altering the compatibility string for
Diggler.
