i hate number 7. as a user that navigates web pages by keyboard (and most of the time by vi keys), i hate it when sites focus a text box on a page that has enough other content to require scrolling.
it's one thing if it's on a solitary login page or google.com where the primary content on the page is the text input field, but when you focus a search box or some other field when i'm trying to scroll with the 'j' key, it's very frustrating.
i was actually using a site the other day that not only focused some search box way off to the corner, but actually re-focused the text box every time i hit a key. it took me a short while to figure out why i couldn't scroll down (the search box was by then filled with "jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj").
