> This feature exists because: - Many iTerm2 features translate well to web browsing - It provides a unified terminal and browser experience - A former colleague suggested this idea in 2014 and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. - I am maybe having a midlife crisis and this is cheaper than a sports car.

I can't put my finger on why, but this might be the most refreshing thing I've seen in a README in years.

I’m convinced that a term/browser can somehow help in the fight against ensh*ttification and general spoiling of the internet experience for certain classes of user.

Edited for typo.

When I saw the release notes, I checked the calendar to see if it's April 1st... The reasoning is really cool though.

As much as I despise the feature (security), I absolutely respect the motivation to do it. I think this is why its so refreshing - one of those itches being scratched which, sure - why not? - but then again, omfg, just no.

It is probably a useful feature to be able to have documentation visible while you’re working in the terminal. But it does violate the concept that a program should do one thing well and nothing else, so I don’t know how I feel about it

What is the additional security hazard you see?
