In addition to some of the other posts on this thread, what I really want is the ability to suppress animations, e.g. animated GIFs. They give me a headache. This is a common feature in every other browser. Safari' preferences have suppression for plugins, java, javascript, etc. but why not animations? Suppressing all the graphics isn't the right option, since I might want to look at a graph on a page but suppress the annoying animated advert near it. Safari also needs sophisticated ad filtering, like OmniWeb. And on Tabbed Browsing - include if for those who want it, but make it optional for those of us -- including me -- who don't.
