Bagging Explorer: eWeek likes Safari. So do I. It's now the default browser on my OS X laptop. A brief wish list:

1. Tabbed browsing
2. Editable (not just purgeable) History
3. Autocomplete form-filling
4. One-click selection of the URL in the location bar (progressively coloring the location window as the page loads — making it a progress bar— is a clever touch, but it misleads the user into thinking the text there is highlighted when it's not... and when the user would like it to be
5. Image icon generation for images dragged to directories

Safari is now my default browser as well. I agree with Doc on 1 and 3. As to item 4 you can currently one-click to select the url in the location bar by clicking on the icon to the left of the address. Also, I like the way the progress bar works in Safari. It's not confusing to me in the least, but everybody's different.
