7. Is the pop-up blocker configurable.
My company has a biz website that I have to deal with from time to time that requires my browser to accept pop-up windows.

In Firefox.
That way it's available in tab #1 for a quick search if I need to looks something up.
Also, I don't want to miss the topical cartoons they put into the logo occasionally.

23. Writer's Digest
