Ok, but I had to ask...

Maybe Sherlock shouldn't be built into Safari, but there should a key command or menu option to launch it.

For those of you who don't know about hotsauce follow this url.

For those of you who do know about hotsauce, seeing as this was an insanely great Apple technology like a hundred years ago, why can't it be built into Safari? Perhaps it could be based upon xml instead of mcf. It seems to me that mcf could be implemented via a xml script of some sort.

Just think, an aqualike webpage flythru that actually works. That would be cool.

Or am I off my rocker?

HotSauce (originally called "Project X") was interesting in concept. But it's another of those things where implementation didn't work quite as well as they'd hoped.

It took spatial orientation to a literal level by having users fly through space. And that was, in the end, its downfall; flying through space takes time, and users didn't want to spend that time. While a nifty idea on paper, it's just one of those things that doesn't work out when applied to reality.
You are in Soviet Russia. It is dark. Grue is likely to be eaten by YOU!

If it didn't have tabs...I wouldn't have been interested.

I'm sorry...I just had to.
