It would be nice to have a "throbber" (animated loading icon) in the HTML-based HELP browser, to let us know when pages are still loading. I see the DONE on the status bar. A throbber would be a nice addition, though.  A right-click shortcut menu for BACK, FORWARD, HOME would be neat, too. Or the standard keyboard shortcuts like ALT-backarrow. While I'm at it, a clearer indication that the HTML window has "focus" would be nice. The top window border could turn blue, maybe. The browser window seems to go transparent when we click on another UI menu, like PREFERENCES, but not when we click on the world. Perhaps the browser could turn transparent when focus is on the world. I'm so glad to see HTML in world. Keep it up!

So it does. There's a cute lil 29 frame throbber gif anim in C:\Program Files\SecondLife\app_settings\mozilla\res\throbber. Can anyone decipher the message in it? It looks like it says, "SEARCH all for you feel good." Heh.

No mandatory throbbing, pulsating, twisting, writhing, undulating, peristaltic motioning, twisting in the breeze, dancing to the beat of a different drum, or otherwise animated icons, please.
