The problem which was mentioned yesterday about IMP requiring Javascript is one
which will greatly limit the use of it.
Many government and organizations are required to make their web sites
accessible to people who can not use the common interfaces. The most obvious
is a browser based on a text-to-speech system for a blind person. I'm not
aware of a text-oriented browser which can run Javascript, much less read text
painted inside an image which runs a script.
It also means that IMP cannot be used in a PDA text screen through a telnet/SSH
link, nor a WAP_phone-to-telnet link.
