@servo I'd still like an update on the decisions about using AI in code submissions. Can someone respond to that please?

@gemlog @mpjgregoire To add in a fresh review by my entirely subjective personal marking scheme, I can say that #Servo fails pretty horribly:

〰️ Theme is ugly as sin, DPI scaling ignored, but it does actually use my window borders, so petulantly I'm giving it the same marks as Firefox here ;)

❌ Couldn't test downloading/uploading dialogue window

❌ Couldn't test results of downloading

❌ The best I could get was some sites it would give the website title in the titlebar. Every website however showed an unchanging white blank page. Zero websites were usable!

✔️ Best browser tried yet actually, it goes to valid .lan, .local, and .blah.internal addresses when I type them in sans protocol identifier and press enter

❌ I mean I just assume they don't work but obviously couldn't try

❌ The cert for the internal CA at work is in my trusted certs on this system, but Servo doesn't care, throws a certificate error (which I know because the one thing that works, the KDE-supplied window borders, shows a changing title that says "Certificate error" lol)

I'm going to give it a few extra marks for getting test 5 so right, so I'll say it gets 1.9 stars out of 5 ;)

Wait, I just tried to close it, and it is not responding to me clicking the X in the titlebar, I had to resort to killall servo, knocking it down to 1.7.
