| So you're not going to get it until your OS decides to, and if its implementation is poor you're SOL? |
| |
| ▲ | dotancohen 6 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Choose the implementation that you like, or contribute to help make one better. Just like all other software on your computer. Don't like Libreoffice's implementation of Word support? Install Koffice. I take it you've never installed non-OEM software on your computer? | | |
| ▲ | dpark 6 days ago | parent [-] | | Why would anyone install Koffice when clearly they would wait for the OS to support Word directly? |

As a couple parents up stated, there's no technical reason a browser has to have a transformer embedded into it. There might be a business reason like "we made a dumb choice and don't have the manpower to fix it", but I doubt this is something they will accept, at least with a mission statement like they have. | |

| The mindset of every browser vendor is that they are the OS now, and all that kernel and userland guff merely supporting infrastructure. |

| > Sounds like a great OS feature. Cool, and some DEs make it possible to start implementing this for most applications today. But Mozilla is not KDE or Gnome, so the most they can do is to make this on their software, and make it easy to copy for the entire system. > Sounds like a web site, not a browser feature. Sounds like a bit of lack of imagination on your part. Do you think the same for text search? > |
