Couldn't agree more.  And not only lightweight where I'm concerned..

It would be very convenient indeed since I use Elinks for 99% of my
browsing activities and although I went through a few hoops to add in
their idea of js support, I still have to fire up mozilla/seamonkey once

I just have to remember to shut it down as soon as I'm done since many
pages cause it to push my CPU usage even when it's just sitting there
doing nothing useful.
