NeoSmart has a review of the just released Internet Explorer 7 and screenshots to match. The review focuses on the user interface, security, and compatibility of Internet Explorer 7 compared to IE6, Opera, and Firefox. They conclude: "The world of online browsing has finally reached a point where, by-and-large, it doesn't matter what browser a user chooses or how they decide to browse the web, for the most part pages will display the way they should, the users will be secure, and malware needs to find a new venue. This latest build of Internet Explorer 7 only strengthened our opinion."

Is it patented or something?
Because Opera doesn't have it either - and one would think it's easy enough to implement.

Opera's had it for some years longer than Firefox, actually. Thankfully it doesn't automatically activate, but rather uses '/' (like vi), so that you can still use Opera's tremendous keyboard shortcuts.
