Now that's interesting: "Stability improvements for 3rd-party plug-ins,
the search field and Yahoo! Mail". Is that the first time Apple's done
anything helpful wrt Safari plug-ins and extensions? Or maybe this is
just for legal Webkit extensions like ClickToFlash.

Maybe more importantly, there's also a security update and a performance
update (for HDs) for 10.5/Intel.

I thought the disk performance update came out a few weeks ago?

Could be. But it didn't alert me. And it doesn't look like much of an
issue for most people.

What I was slightly surprised by was the security update 2009-6 (if I
remember right). I'd have thought that that would flag itself up, but it
doesn't seem to have done so.

My own (ie. totally unsubstantiated) guess is that this will come out
of Google's work on Webkit for Chrome. As Chrome improves its plug-in
support, so Webkit will improve and hence percolate to Safari.

Not basing this on anything other than guesswork, so take it as pure
speculation.


Cheers,
Ian
