Mozilla suite.  I hate Firefox for the very fact that it's not 
integrated with Thunderbird (or it wasn't when I tried it last).  I want 
to be able to middle click in an email and have Firefox bring it up in a 
TAB.  The best solution the mozilla people could give me was to hack 
around with Firefox, make it bring up new clicks in tabs always, or 
something like that.  Not exactly what I wanted.  I think the suite is 
better anyway--I like the options.

Yeah I think it would be pretty simple as long as I can get Mozilla 
running without a window.  However, one thing that ooqstart doesn't do 
is restart itself when it crashes or gets shut down.  This is 
particularly important on Mozilla, because when you have to kill one 
Mozilla window, the whole program goes down, so the quick starter needs 
to come back up.  Either something has to run in the background which is 
checking for it all the time, or maybe there's something in Gnome 
sessions which will allow me to restart something that crashes (like 
Nautilus does).
