IMHO developers who insist their users have a particular browser, even if a popular one, are being very short sited. These days, the web is finding its way into more and more appliances that are not, on the face of it, 'computers', for example, webcams and fridges. Internet TVs have come and gone but, no doubt, will be back again. Using some proprietary extensions to HTML simply extends Microsoft's power further into these markets. Please don't do it!
