"How do the latest versions of each browser compare? For this prizefight, we looked at Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, Microsoft's first new Internet browser since 2001 and Mozilla Firefox 2, Mozilla's update of its popular Firefox 1.5 browser released in November 2005." This will be the last Firefox 2 vs. IE7 article. I promise.

That was a nice feature that Maxthon introduced years ago.
Good idea for Firefox to "borrow" it.
If you´re going to poke another browser for borrowing a feature from another browser, at least, get your facts straight: Maxthon most likely borrowed this feature from Opera around version 6 or so.

Is this really a problem? The world would be a better place (well, atleast the internets) if some browsers (oh, IE, for example) would 'borrow' a bit more aggressively from those that have done it better.
Of course, if you don't want to wait for your browser to catch up and 'borrow' everything worth having, you could just grab Opera now.

While discussing tabbed browsing and "cool" features - I find the History > Recently Closed Tabs menu item incredibly useful in Firefox. I use it when hitting the wrong close button by mistake, when I realise I forgot to check out something on a page after navigating link after link to get there, when I have to send another email via a webmail client after closing it, or when a flash/media plugin causes the page loading to die and I just want to re-open that page.
One of the sorely under-marketed features of tabbed browsing in FF2.
