[Mozile] Mozile 0.7.4 Released

[James A. Overton]

I believe that I've fixed issues 1-5 and 8-10. See the ChangeLog for  
some notes (http://mozile.mozdev.org/0.7/ChangeLog). The new code is  
in CVS and active on the Mozile home page.
	I'll need a test case for issue 6.
	Issue 7 is one we've been wrestling with for a while. It's just the  
way Gecko renders empty or white-space-only elements. One solution is  
to set the CSS min-height for list-items. I've done this for  
paragraphs on the Mozile home page. But Mozile shouldn't be messing  
with the CSS of a page any more than it has to, so I don't know how  
this should be done automatically. Another solution is to insert an  
NBSP entity, but then we'd have to remove it, and I think there are  
problems with XML documents where HTML entities are not automatically  
given. Suggestions welcome.
	Fixing issue 9 led me to rewrite the InsertionPoint code. Before, an  
IP could only exist in a text node. Now it can also exist in an  
element, just like the point concept used in Range and Selection.
	
	It's really useful to get another pair of eyes looking for bugs. No  
bugs would be better, but good bug reports are the next best thing!
	Thanks again,

James
