I doubt it. Especially, since MS tends to redefine bugs as "features."  
;-) But apart from bugs, there is, of course, much more software 
available for Win than for any other OS.

IE is a product of MS, and MS's OS is Windows. So, I would expect IE to 
have the same or even more features in its native environment than in 
its Mac-Version. That seems to be a straightforward expectation. Since I 
am therefore astonished, that IE for Mac carries a possibly useful 
feature IE for Win doesn't offer, I translate my astonishment into an 
exclamation mark. Why not? ASCII anyways has limited expressive 
possibilities, as millions of unnecessary flame wars testify. So, why 
restrict the available code even further?

I'm aware that you might have interpreted the exclamation mark possibly 
differently (How?), and, indeed, I also used it as a caution for Windows 
users, who, I suspect, are the overwhelming majority on this list. 
Again: What's wrong with that use?
