For Average Joe and Jane it usually isn't obvious what to do when
something's broken. I've observed people using really broken websites
(fallen apart layout, broken menus) and never "report" but complain to
their colleagues. I second that people are bad at reporting problems,
and I must add that computer people are usually bad to get the
complaints and fix them. ;-) I guess if you have a problem and you
know someone who can do something about it, then it'll get fixed,
otherwise it _may_ get fixed, one day or other. [I've experienced this
latter problem regarding email config bugs and [not] having them
fixed.]
Nevertheless I wouldn't miss any IE features, but then again I'm an
anti m$ fascist by genetics. ;-)
