Both FIreBug and the Safari 4 Beta let you edit the styles and see the changes in real time on the page. This can be very helpful for understanding how to make it look the way you want.
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why can't Opera do something like that? Though I have started poking into their development stuff and it's quite interesting.
eta: I take that back. I just have to get the hang of Dragonfly.

Okay, I'm possibly the slowest kid on the block, but did I really never know until now that when you threadsuck, it exposes whitefont? Is there a way to, you know, not do that?

There is a way not to do that, but we need to work out what we're breaking for other people first.
Also, a reminder, Bugtracker in the thread header is for feature requests. If you're serious about it, please put it there, because otherwise I end up with a soup of confusing bookmarks from this thread, and other people can't see what's been requested/reported.

I will make a suggestion in the Bugtracker! I just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something obvious first...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am sometimes suprised (and spoiled) by accidentally reading the whitefont in a threadsuck, but generally I only suck Natter, and the level of spoilage is pretty low in there, even in whitefont.

I bring it up because I got spoiled for FNL in an oblique way (and a long-term one, as I am not currently caught up on the show, but plan to watch on DVD) in Natter. It took me reading several posts to even realize what people were talking about was originally whitefonted.
(See above re: sometimes I'm kind of slow.)

Only threadsuck stuff when I'm looking for a specific post, so I grab the thread then use Find to find the relevant phrase.

If there are people who want it the way it is, things become more complicated.
I'm going to leave the question open for a bit, since threadsuckers aren't necessarily around a lot.
