Fix your broken comment system, please?
Another comment lost to what appears to be a buggy web UI (er... you were saying something about relying on web browsers as application front-end? Not while it sucks like this...)

I start a comment, add text, click the "Add your opinion" button. I click Yes to run active content when prompted (this is XP and IE7 with the latter set to prompt on active content). I get an "enhanced" editor (i.e. the extra text "The following HTML tags are supported in TalkBack" appears) with a BLANK text field, and am advised "You must enter the text for the body of your message". The text I already wrote is GONE, and clicking the Back botton in the browser doesn't get it back.

Do I really want apps that behave this badly?
