I'm not a "casual user", I don't think, and I use Camino - I haven't 
tried out the new Firefox. Camino has a close button on the tab, but it 
doesn't in any sense use up "1/4 of the tab". If Firefox's tabs are so 
poorly designed, then that's what you ought to be hating.

That's one of the things I prefer about Camino. I like being able to 
close a tab other than the one I'm viewing with a single click.

And of course it doesn't have that hateful CPU-snorting skinnable UI. 
I'm down with Makali and JWZ on the desirability of skinnable UIs, but 
y'all know this... I've endorsed Makali's audio-cock technology on 
hates-software before.
There's stuff above here
