Has anyone noticed the download progress bar ON the icon when downloading files. I downloaded some wallpapers and noticed that the small icon placed on the desktop has a blue progress bar on it to indicate the download progress. I hadn't seen this before so I thought it was pretty cool.

iCab also had it.

But what you might not have seen yet: Safari 1.2 now simulates mouse clicks for the default button when you hit the return key. The button is drawn in pushed appearance for a split second. Haven't seen that in any other browser yet.
