Maybe we should stop talking about cross-browserbility and introduce the
more accurate word dual-browserability.... For the foreseeable future,
BXE will not work on anything other than Mozilla/Gecko and MSIE6 based
browsers, therefore we just have to take those to codebases into
account. And MSIE has contentEditable, which should be enough to have a
decent cursor.
