(sorry if someone mentioned this already)

give people the preference setting that allows calls that would open a webbrowser to:
1) invoked the one build into the sl client, or
2) launch the browser the user uses on their desktop

This is self-defeating, since the whole idea is to integrate the browser on a prim.

That, and I doubt Microsoft would be happy with IE running in SL.

Honestly, I think LL has a huge user perception problem.

Even veteran players are misunderstanding where HTML in SL is going. This goes far, far beyond a simple browser.
