Could people here please review this patch.
A few changes are made:
1) the list at the top of handbook/desktop-browsers.html is changed to a
list of major browsers in the system
2) An Entry for dillo and links is added
3) Another column for "license" is added to the top list
4) some "ids" are added so that <xref> works properly
5) A note of support for linux flash9 on -STABLE is added
6) Some other minor changes that I don't remember
