I would assume anyone still using dial-up would most likely have little internet in web 2.0 type websites, and therefore it would not be too much of an issue. However I do there should be more of a focus on making sites smaller and load faster, if just to save bandwidth somewhat.

What bothers me just as much is Microsoft's policy on activeX & Silverlight ... the user can globally allow, disallow, or permit prompting of such, but cannot selectively set permissions (no to 3rd party, always for suchsuch.com) for sites.
