Counter badge on dock icon doesn't go away unless you check every.Sheets use a custom (faster) animation speed inconsistent for no good reason.Favicons are used everywhere *except* where they are most useful: the bookmarks menu.The apple-up and apple-down keys are very annoyingly overridden.Loading multiple tabs is painfully slow compared to other browsers.
