And the talk about confusing icons - how many do you guys put in the toolbar anyway? Me, I just have back, forward, reload, and home. Everything else can be accessed with hotkey or menus.

There are a variety of interests here, and it's possible to meet all of them.
- Aesthetic gratification & artistic expression
- Functionality for all values of "user"
- Flexible working styles (keyboard, mouse click, menu selection)
I certainly don't want Handycam to curse a hideous interface every time an OmniWeb window opens.
I hope posters here can appreciate that large distinctive icons work well for those of us with vision and memory impairments. (Keyboard shortcuts and menu options impose an extra memory load, since they're hidden.)
For those of you thinking, "geez, how hard can it be to learn one more keybinding?" I hope you never slip, hit your head, and find out.
When the OmniGroup program-wizards create a variety of preferences (or AppleScript install applications to swap out icon sets) then all users can tune this lovely app to what we need.
