One gripe I have had for years is the inability in Google mail to forward more than one message at a time. I am not sure why it hasn't been implemented after all these years; scared of extra traffic, spam? Anyhows, this rant brings me to some new functionality Tasks.

Which is bad, but installing utter crap now that's just not on. Take a look at what Skype's FireFox addon does to my links below.
