It's so frustrating that my password manager even has permission to do this. Almost makes me want to run extension-free.

How fun is this? Watch an audience cheer and laugh in amazement over pixel zooming and an eraser tool. People had never seen anything like it. You can even hear Jobs saying "incredible" as Bill Atkinson demos panning around an image while zoomed in.
