It didn't push you far enough to do it on the server then...?

Seriously though, for "10,000 desktops with unknown browsers" I
would've made the call very early on to do it serverside, regardless
of the "browser bug".

10,000 desktops with client-side rendering of the transformed result: local editing and local preview before posting to the server for distribution. There were no constraints on which browser was on the desktop.


Surely the comment hack didn't go down well...

In fact, since it was invisible, it went down quite well.
