> 2) Sometimes when you "open a link in a new window" and quickly try to switch to
> the original window (this is necessary since there's no "open in background
> window" option), the link will be opened in the original window and the new
> window remains blank with the url pointing to the old location.
>
> 3) Sometimes it is futile to try to select a window in the taskbar since the
> browser will put in the foreground whatever window it choses (usually the one it
> has just loaded).

> None of this happened with chinook.
