In mozilla, if you write a window.status operation using an onmouseover on a
link, you are never going to see the message in the statusbar. This is because
in mozilla, the url wins out over the window.status operation. However, to make
this work, it is very simple...you simply write a function that does a
setTimeout('window.status = "foo",10) and you get your message. Plus, it takes
away escaping hell when trying to write it in the source code. I noticed that
throughout IMP, none of the mouseovers work, so you might want to think about
implementing this. In addition, it would be nice if (possibly a configuration),
all images had "title" attributes, so when you fly over the refresh link, you
know it is going to refresh.
