Happy New Year!
I just registered for an OmniWeb license, so we'll see how far my
defection from Firefox goes!
One feature I miss from iCab which OW ought try is off-line history
cache reading, even after you quit OW and come back in off-line. You
can literally save and review off-line an entire web page which you've
previously surfed thru in iCab. Pretty please, OmniWeb dudes? Maybe OW
fans can order the mother Starbucks over there to deliver you guys some
fancy java as a little treat inducement, eh? Icing on the cake would be
the ability to actually prune unwanted specific pages within your
cache.
Another nice option would be to omit display of favicons on the
Favorites bar.
Programmable hot-keys for things like open new page as background tab,
etc.
This one is mostly whimsical: the ability to scale the size of a
window's contents like a magnifier or shrinker.
Another whimsical one, but not sure if it's in a browser's domain: The
ability to create/record auto-scripts/macros to log-in, open and check
in-boxes of non-POP Mail services like .Mail and Yahoo and others.
Automatic Safari/OW bookmark synchronization (including histories?).
Haven't checked to see if it's already featured, but the ability to
change OW tool bar icons or themes.
Create thumbnails for images dragged from a window and onto the desktop.
Keyboard-less mouse-button only contextual-menu type pop-up menus with
OW commands and options.
Ability to capture an entire web page down to X-levels.

Keep up the great work!
