You have complete control over which classes are assigned to what nodes.

For example if you create an alert box with ExtJS you can always add a no-op classname to it. This way you can write your Selenium test to do class based look ups and then verify the contents of the child nodes within.

Anybody know of a plug in to tell if there are mismatched tags on a page? I can't seem to find one for firefox, my iPhone does it nicely in the error console :(

I investigated this for serving up static content for my company. a couple things are wrong: 1) it doesn't serve up gzipped files to browsers that accept gzip, you have to manually manage this yourself 2) there's no way to force CF to reload from S3 so you have to resort to versioning by filename (styles.v1.css, styles.v2.css, etc)..

Otherwise for it's price, CF is a bargain for client-side performance minded startups.

You could potentially get around the copyright policy by putting a disclaimer that the user most 'own' or have permission to grab the images. It's no different than someone downloading a copyrighted picture and uploading them to another service.

The other big issue I can foresee is that most of the sharing websites don't have api's for you to programatically get at photos. They in fact do their best to prevent you from ripping photos. You would have to play a pretty nasty cat and mouse game there.
