Any idea why somebody might have felt that removing this feature would 
be an upgrade?

It amazes me what lengths some people will go to to cut down on features 
in the name of upgrade.  Sometimes there's the excuse of reducing bloat. 
  But I can't believe that support for the view-source pseudoprotocol 
can be such bloat that M$ has decided to get rid of it.

Something like that.  But now that I've finished my PhD and my personal 
workstation's taken away, I'm now relying on the lab machines.  I guess 
I should see if I can get it working here....
