Probably not everyone will agree, but I deem this to be a showstopper
BugFeature (tm) in Mozilla 1.0.
Seems they have intentionally made it so that multiple instances of the
browser cannot be run. So simply clicking on a link in Kmail to bring up a
second window won't work. Or even just running it twice from the CLI or
menu won't either.
Here's one of several Bugzilla's about it:

Note that I can run multiple instances of Opera, Konqueror, Internet
Explorer, Netscape, and even Mozilla (before 1.0rc3) with no worries about
"profile corruption".
This makes Mozilla largely useless as a browser to me - most every time I
click on a link it refuses to start.
Is there any other worthwhile choice other than Opera?
