Thing is, as was demonstrated some months ago here on this list 
(or was it languages?), there are quite a few ways that a person 
can use to change the way the browser represents itself.  For 
example, mine userAgent string is set to:

ArchBrowser/6.75 [fu] (Win99; X; BrainEater)

So the average script pukes when it wants to direct me based on 
that information.
