Package: firefox
Version: 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.6-3
Severity: normal

I believe the context menu "switch page direction" is supposed
to lay the current page out differently, and that's it.

I tried "switch page direction" on http://vg.no,
and immediately got "Read flash.vg.no" and a long delay
as something (likely flash) was fetched from this slow site.

That looks like a performance bug to me, there should be no
need for fetching stuff off the net in order to lay the
page out differently.  Some sites are slow enough as they
are.  The current page is always in memory, isn't it?

Not a big problem for me, as I don't usually switch page
direction, but I guess this is used a lot more by people
who read both english pages and pages in right-to-left
languages.
