Really old plans
These are some very old notes. Many of these issues have in fact been fixed in 1.6.5. This list needs to be reviewed...
- Fix the attach issue (review patch)
- Remove unit tests from the gem
- Research and tally root cause of all the "known failures" when running the Watir unit tests with FireWatir
- Simplify Watir::Browser.default vs. Watir.options[:browser]
