Anyone want to finish the port this GreaseMonkey script over to IE7?

Ah, the fabled ported version. Good luck with maintaining that.
There's also GM4IE (

The biggest problems with going cross-browser are going to be related to the DOM and this thing basically lives in it full time. I can't think of a single compelling reason for more than 10 or 20 percent of the users to use IE instead of Firefox so spending a bunch of our (my) time coding cross-browser support doesn't make much sense when I could be plugging in new features instead. A lot of the upcoming features I'm planning get even deeper into the DOM and do things like overlayed DIVs, script-generated forms and images, etc. Keeping two versions synced could become problematic and would definately add overhead.
