Actually, a web browser is a little like getting a ream of paper. While
you can get paper in a range of colors, when you ask your mate to grab a
ream of paper when he's at the office supplies, you expect him to come
back with a ream of 'white' paper, and almost all your documents are set
up for white paper unless you particularly wanted a different color.
The same thing should happen with web-browsers. User's expect a white
background. Hell, a lot of bad web designers expect a white background.
It might be worth asking the mozilla guys why the default background
color changed from grey to white. I suspect that it had something to do
with the fact that most users just went and changed the color to white
because the grey was annoying (they expected white).
My point exactly. Now, can we fix this?
