No more Mac IE

From a few different sources, MS has announced that it is dropping IE for the Mac. This actually isn't too surprising, since Apple's been working pretty hard on making Safari work with almost any web page (hmm, aren't we about due for another beta or a release?). The part of this I find amusing is part of MS's explaination:

Ho says that the decision has been made to make way for Apple's own Safari browser. 'Some of the key customer requests for web browsing on the Mac require close development between the browser and the OS, something to which only Apple has access,' she explained. [MacMegaSite]

Huh? Just what features are people requesting that require that? Camino, OmniWeb, and Firebird seem to be doing okay so far. What the heck are they talking about?
