All I'm saying is that the EWW defaults should = be=20 similar to what Firefox and the other browsers use; that's just common se= nse. If=20 there are good reasons for the NSM to use different default settings for = non-EWW=20 connections, then of course the NSM should do that. Inertia is not a good= reason=20 here, though, as attacks are now more sophisticated and settings defaults= that=20 were OK years ago are not OK now.
