Again, a point. I haven't actually done this trick for ages, I just make 
basic forms without too much designy stuff to take the attention away.

Anyway, we should focus on

1) getting it to work in as many browsers as possible
2) making the design as good as possible in as many browsers as possible

It's just that it is strange to do something like the mouseover knowing it 
won't work in NN4. You can get away with it now, but I still have some 
ancient reflexes left that tell me to make it NN4 compatible as soon as 
possible. I'll need to stifle those reflexes, they aren't needed any more.
