I didn't see a 'feedback' email or even a form that random members of
the unwashed like me could use.

For subscribers, is there a feedback path?

Since they are running the script-free version of the service, they
should have a NOSCRIPT element in the first script-dependent page that
people will encounter that advises the user of the availability of this
option.  They can even harrass you to "upgrade" if they provide the
option to follow a link to the universal version.  They've done the
writing already, just haven't implemented the linking quite right.

By the way, I did mention this in the WAI.  But they have no magic in
with Yahoo.  Customers count, even with free services, if you say it right.
