   This generally works the same as before though one test with M+ 1p (from    
   your site) that I expected to be bold seemed much bolder then the rest.    
   Hopefully the page actually preferred a heavier font. Other then that    
   italics, bold, and normal seem to be the same as before.

   I installed M+ 1p and made it the default. Most everything looks good    
   with bold where expected.   
   I'll send copies to Rich and Walter with the suggestion to use for a    
   release.   
   I also note that SeaMonkey has become much quicker at changing fonts.
