GUIs and Internet Explorer

Description
The Ext GUI works in IE9 only if Document Mode is IE9 Standards. To force this Document Mode even when you set IE9 in another Browser Mode (like IE9 Compatiblity View, IE8, or IE7) I added
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"/>
to the index.htmls in the Ext GUI.
However it turns out that the Classic GUI works only in IE9 if Document Mode is *not* IE9 Standards. Therefore I left, in header.xsl,
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8"/>
to force IE9 not to use IE9 Standards Document Mode for the Classic GUI.
It remains to be tested if the Ext GUI works in real IE7 and IE8 browsers (in their various Browser Modes). And if not, whether we care about that.
