Fixes:

• Fixed: 308396 - Tabbed-browsing changes.
• Fixed: 309550 - Clear inside fieldset doesn't work.
• Fixed: 304980 - nsIXMLHttpRequest throws exception on access of status member when the request failed due to a timeout.
• Fixed: 316764 - Implement <svg:mask>.
• Fixed: 324182 - Userdefined tags can lose one of their attributes. (This was one of the amusing HTML-parsing bugs Hixie found last week.)

The tabbed-browsing changes:

• Close buttons on tabs, including background tabs (as long as browser.tabs.disableBackgroundClose is true and each tab is at least browser.tabs.tabClipWidth pixels wide).
• Make it easier to get back to the "parent tab" when you click a link that opens in a new window: if a link opens a new tab with focus, when that tab is closed, focus returns to its parent tab only if you have not manually switched to another tab.
• Simplify the preferences available for tabs.
• Improve the visual appearance of keyboard-focused tabs.

See Mike Beltzner's post and this thread on MozillaZine for more about the tabbed-browsing changes.

Fixes for recent regressions:

• Fixed: 323549 - History autocomplete doesn't autocomplete "fi" to "file://" URIs correctly.
