I'm trying to decide if upgrading to a new-enough pango would be better 
(e.g. lifting the pango-1.6 from SL4x).  Given that ffox 1.0.8 is linked 
against the pango 1.2 in SL3 I don't know if users will object to losing 
internationalized text support...

What (if any) functionality does one actually lose by disabling pango?

Yup those look like what I just started with (based on the previous 
changes for ffox 1.0.8)...

I guess that somewhere there are some 'default' bookmarks/homepages to be 
hacked as well to remove any references to the Vendor... (not that I've 
looked very closely yet).
