Yesterday I found out that it supports position: fixed so you can put
something in a position regardless of scroll. Will have to experiment
further, but there is basic support.

Current preview is M16 (http://www.mozilla.org). It's slightly worse than
M15, which in turn was the best preview so far, better than the Preview
Release.

Recent history:

M12: Can't remember
M13 (also called Netscape 5 Alpha): OK-ish
M14: Buggy
NN6 PR1: Slightly less buggy
M15: OK-ish
M16: Buggy

So generally they fix one thing, another thing breaks.
