It’s not an IE7 thing - they were forced to change it as a result of a
stupid, opportunistic patent lawsuit. The case was found for the plaintiff, Eolas (sound like something from Lord of the Rings) despite unprecedented support for MS, including a letter from Tim Berners-Lee himself, explaining exactly how it would break the internet. It’s not just MS who will be affected if it is pursued any further, but Sun, Mozilla, Real Networks - any kind of embedded app.
So, in answer to your question, yes - it is now the same in IE6. However, it still has to be established as to whether this solution is acceptable under the terms of the court ruling.
