> 1) Make it possile to disable progressive display of images.

Fixed in beta-3.  You can now set a time interval between incremental  
updates; set it to a couple minutes and you effectively disable  
incremental display.

> 2) Let OmniWeb halftone (or even better, dither) images itself on mono  
machines down to 2bit gray, and save the result in a NSBitmapImageRep  
(or whatever it's called in OpenStep) which is suited for the display  
(2bitgray).

We're working on this for beta-3.

> Misfeature: downloading an image displays it in OmniWeb instead of  
spawning an external viewer. While this is fine, one used to previously  
be able to drag on any image displayed in OmniWeb1.0, and upon releasing  
it it would be opened in an external viewer; This also no longer works.

Command-drag an image and you can drop it on IconBuilder or the  
Workspace or whereever.
