It would NOT be for displaying YouTube or Amazon some other huge media heavy 
scripted out the yin yag pages. It would be for displaying very simple 
CUSTOM pages to be able to acess offline content like pictures for products 
slide shows (access probably 50 times faster than the asset server!) and 
putting custom text and other changeable content on a prim face. And that 
alone would be a god send feature!

I would love a tiny barely capable (and 99.999% non vulnerable) prim face 
web content. In fact to hell with dillo, even the features to display simple 
text and images streamed from the web or from a notecard using say 4 
standard html tags (something that could be written in a weeks time) would 
probably be even better. Less to go wrong.

Note: Err make the pages specifiable as external with a URL or internal via 
a file URL to the prims contents (note card). Oh, and make notceards 
writable from LSL, k thanks!
