			Now let's talk about design. The current application does four basic things:
			# Shows a news page with content populated from QMO (quality.mozilla.org)
			# Provides a Litmus tab to run Litmus testcases
			# Bugzilla tab to do some simple bugzilla querying
			# Chat - rebundles Chatzilla (an IRC chat add-on). It will launch Chatzilla for you.

			What else can it do? What does it not do well that we should improve?
