Gordon,
you should read how their "useability" labs develop the new MS Office
toolbars. :) There's a lot about "open standards" on their pages, but they
are not very open about HTML in my opinion. Their extensions were a useful
addition and temporary measure but they seem to resist any true
consideration of how these features should be developed in an interoperable way.
