One thing that I found I miss in Firefox 1.5 is the ability to tailor
the print command. (IE File -> Print... -> properties)  For certain
documents (Reference etc..) I used to be able to tag -o number-up=X
(where X is 2,4,6,8 etc..) on the end of the print line to do N-up
printing. Alas not any more (At least not that I have found. I believe
I need to set up a separate printer under cups to regain this ability. 

On the upside, the session manager is much better, even restores
multiple windows!
