Been using midori all day long at every site i can think of with no

pokey program

I have found a couple of problems sites with Midori but they appear to be known and can be overcome. Sites that claim the browser is unsupported tend to work OK, a few sites told me FF 3.0, 3.5 & 3.6 was unsupported. Online banking sites are another matter, obviously I can only test mine, which refuses to cooperate with Midori, Opera and FF 3.5 & 3.6. I am not sure if this will be a major problem, would the target group for this distro use online banking.
The thing is, just how critical are these two.

It looks like they are not going to get sorted any time soon.
