Didn't Google implement before the browser integration APIs spec was final?

If so, I totally understand a migration period, and it's nothing to hold against them.



Google UA sniffed on Gmail to exclude Firefox (and every browser that wasn't specifically Chrome).

And there shouldn't be a "migration period" that holds the entire feature hostage until browsers implement Chrome-specific stuff.


My memory was that Firefox had implemented a newer draft (or final version?) of the spec. Sniffing the UA to avoid providing broken stuff to people isn't exactly evil.
