It would also be cool to have a kiosk mode available in which the interface would be fullscreen unless a special keyboard command was issued. | It would also be cool to have a kiosk mode available in which the interface would be fullscreen unless a special keyboard command was issued. | ||

=== DNS prefetching === | |||
although this isn't a user interface issue, it seems that Kiwix makes DNS requests on all the external links included in each Wikipedia article it loads (without clicking on them). So if I pull up World War II, for example, Kiwix might make a couple hundred DNS requests. This isn't bad for someone living in the US, but if you are in a remote area and don't have unlimited data for free, it could be an unexpected surprise, since Kiwix is supposed to be an "offline" reader. Just thought I would pass it along. | |||
