Changing servers (including getting existing installs updated) is even more 
painful than changing browsers, though.

It would be very nice if servers had better MIME type handling, but the reality 
is that they don't, and likely won't any time in the next several (5+, I would 
guess) years.

I'd love to be proved a hopeless pessimist on this point, of course.  ;)
