For those who are interested, there is a new sneaky peak available... 
4.0.4 sneaky peek 2

New in 4.0.4 sneaky peek 2:

	* Fixes for performance problems when using the "Graphite" control 
tint.

	* Patched +bundleForClass: so it doesn't stat the bundle every time 
you call it.  (We were seeing a lot of stats of OWF.framework and 
OmniHTML.framework, because every localized string in either would end 
up looking up the bundle associated with some class.)

	* We now use Carbon's Text Encoding Conversion APIs to convert 
other character sets to Unicode, which means we can now skip past 
malformed, non-standard input in encodings like Big 5 Chinese.  This 
means that www.163.com (and a ton of other Chinese web sites) now 
display.

We would especially appreciate testing of the new Text Encoding 
Conversion stuff since we don't read chinese very well.
