Dear Steve, Fix Safari

This is the first in a series of posts in which we, your friendly neighborhood TUAWers, pen little missives to his Steveness asking him to cast aside his mercurial nature and listen to some common sense (which, of course we here at TUAW are known for). The item we wish to bring to Steve's attention could be a feature request, a gripe about an Apple policy, or some new vegan milk substitute. Here's the first:

Dear Steve,

I really enjoy using Safari,
in fact it has been my browser of choice since the day it first became available. When I am using a Windows machine, I long for the metal window of Safari, its simple and clear bookmark management system, and the nifty progress bar.

However, all is not right in Safari land. Let me paint you a picture: imagine you have just spent several hours surfing the web looking for tasty morsels for your blog (you are blogging,
right?). You have them all lined up like good little soldiers in Safari tabs. Suddenly you need to get an item on your desktop, so you minimize Safari. Well, you meant to minimize Safari but instead you closed the window. Gone are all 87 tabs! With nary a warning to let you know of what you do!

This makes little to no sense. Safari, in cases like these, should warn you that you have several tabs open, and do you REALLY want to close the window? I shouldn't have to plunk down my hard earned cash for Saft (which is a wonderful little application)  to give Safari such basic funtionality.

For crying out loud, Safari RSS doesn't seem to have a problem warning me that every .dmg I download is an application (duh!) and am I sure that I want to continue downloading?

This is a no brainer, Steve. Heck, even Firefox does it!

You Brother in Macness,
Scott

P.S. Do they sell those black turtlenecks in XXXL?
