Adaptative Web Design + UX deliverables @Jon W Paper (or digital mockup) is not always faster. If the designer is a strong enough coder (and the number of screens at play is higher) JS/HTML/CSS can be faster to iterate on than paper/electric-paper. (When you need three layouts of the same pages, a centralized stylesheet is suddenly very much worth the effort.) That skillset is certainly not the norm, and given that the OP used the term "deliverable", probably not assumed with this question, but seems worth saying. |

Multiple Monitors and screen corners @dnbrv I'm definitely no expert on those occupations. But wouldn't someone who works in that environment day after day quickly become a power user - at least for the actions they commonly perform? (Don't journalists learn ctrl-x and ctr-v pretty quickly even if they have no idea what RAM is?) Of course, I could see people not even conceiving that their would be keyboard shortcuts for window actions - there is a real issue of discoverability. Cut and Paste are at least menu items with tooltips explaining the keyboard shortcuts, so there's a chance they'll be discovered. |

Multiple Monitors and screen corners @dnbrv But how many "common users" have multiple monitor setups? I don't know any. |

Multiple Monitors and screen corners Wait, your co-workers are nerdy enough to have multiple monitors but they still use a mouse to close windows? |

How can I guard against users accidentally sending emails without attachments? +1 for learning specific user patterns, rather than applying a blanket pattern for all users. |

Accessibility of JSF's frameworks You might look at Wicket, which is Java-based, but has a "lighter touch" when it comes to messing with markup - you have nearly complete control over the HTML. The out-of-the-box widgets are not always highly polished (or accessible), but are often good starting points for extending. It's very flexible. |

Why does Firefox remove the “close tab button” when you have more than n tabs open unless you focus on the tab? Mozilla used to publish usability studies, didn't they? I can't seem to find anything recent... |

How to handle pagination in lists that autoupdate Do all the lists update at once? (In other words, does a single update cause all lists to change at once?) |

Does the use of lines improve the usability of tree widgets? It was a great (if misguided) answer before and now with the edit it's an excellent one, that could benefit many people. -1 --> +1. |

Does the use of lines improve the usability of tree widgets? To be clear, you are referring to something like this, right? |
