The reason to reconsider FF after using it since it's earliest times is that
with the introduction sqlite as the storage mechanism it has become impossible

must have been some significant change in the overall design philosophy of
the Mozilla project.

Correct. Combine that with the fact that bookmarks are deliberately
mixed with history in the "awesomebar," and you have a recipe for
sending millions of people back to FF 2. I hope someone is willing to
support FF 2 after mid-December 2008, because, secure or not, FF 2 will
be a popular web browser for years to come.
