You would have to take this guy seriously. He must have been over the strategy of browser powerplay a million times, and must know what is involved. He would also be keen to avoid another humiliating defeat. So I guess worth keeping an eye out for.

I like this one => not yet beta but it works pretty well:
http://stainlessapp.com - I'm using it a lot.

The weekly builds already do some cool tricks like private session data in different tabs/windows. And yes resolving IDNs is on the roadmap - the developers have been asked about this and they acknowledge the need for it and promise it's coming. I plan to hold their feet to the fire.

One thing tho, it's not yet useful for website development as there's no inspector/firebug or similar.
