[Greasemonkey] 1.5 script incompatibility in ABC story

As the author of the largest userscript in usersscriptdom, I would like 
to write some bad words of my 2¢ and throw them at this 1.5 update. Of 
course it blows my script to pieces-- I have done some work on it and 
got half of it working using a lot of evalWindows or is that 
unsafeWindows... Anyway, it seems kind of a sad irony that darn 
confusing  changes to ff and greasemonkey will probably be driving me 
back to using Internet explorer with the Reify/greasemonkey plug-in. 90 
percent of visitors to my site use IE so I might as well go back to 
focusing my attention there. Greasemonkey was supposed to allow for 
injectable JavaScript not WrappedAllToPiecesScript. Sorry, I am just 
sick of keeping track of all the versions I have to write to accommodate 
all the versions. For a brief perfect moment I had one script that 
worked "on the page", in IE, or using FF ... now one version can't store 
or load client-side images, and another version has to reference Windows 
in some metaphorical universe.
