[...] One solution I've been thinking about is to customize the rendering for each user. In general terms, a user goes to a handful of websites regularly. Those sites are the ones he cares more about.
If we for instance remember that for site X, the user prefers no embedded CSS, that's it.
This would be stored in a plain text file as a simple line. The UI interface, under Tools|Customize may offer something like:
[ ] Remember settings for this page [ ] Remember settings for this site
That's it, after a few simple clicks, problem is gone.
The idea is this to be exceptional, this is, used as an exception for a few sites as general rendering should solve most cases.
FWIW, I'm planning to make a list of these ideas to work on this year and be of help in this area.
First of all, let's see how many problems fall into the "plain bug" category, and so are simple to fix (although it needs work and time). Partly, this kind of customization is already possible by usage of user style sheets; perhaps we could add a (proprietary) extension for selecting specific sites. While we're at this: Attached is a page which renders differently in dillo and Firefox; the latter closes the "em" implicitely, so that the red box is below (not inside) the green one.
