Wait... is this a problem of the GUI (which is propietry) or the core (which is certified Open Source)?

Also, very weird that IE and Safari share the same problem, because their rendering system is completely different (IE has a crappy Mosaic-based engine and Safari is using KHTML).

Paladin9:
No problem here.  I use Firefox on my mac.

How critical is it really?

We already knew that Internet Deplorer sux mightily on Win-Doesn't, so how is it such a big surprise that it would suck on the Mac as well?   :eek:  

Secondly, you never run any *NIX as root.   :rolleyes:   If you make this a habit, you deserve what you get.

On Mac "root" is actually hidden.  The "Administrator" on Mac is slightly limited.  I wonder if this bug is in between that.
