“Like Firefox 3.6.x and Thunderbird 3.1.x, the new Camino update
is based on version 1.9.2 of Mozilla’s Gecko rendering engine. This
improves JavaScript performance and compatibility with web
standards, while also addressing several security vulnerabilities;
however, specific details of which vulnerabilities have been closed
are not provided.

“The autocomplete function in the location bar has been
completely ‘overhauled’, allowing users to search both their
bookmarks and history by matching results against page titles and
URLs. The update also includes the ability to hide the status bar
(View > Hide Status Bar), and a new offline mode that can be
accessed using the new ‘Work Offline’ and ‘Go Online’ menu items
under the Camino menu.”
