I agree.  IMHO the browser compatibility requirements for the new ZMI
should be summarized as:

	Current IE
	Mozilla 1.0
	Konqueror (KDE 3.0 version)
	...what's the current state of Mac browsers...

	No Flash

Anyone building or maitaining a Zope site shouldn't have problems
running one of these.  On the other hand, relying on IE-only
features would be bad for those of us building only on Unix/Linux.
Ditto for folks in the Mac world.  What other OS's are important
for site builders?
