Is Greasemonkey actually useable? I understand it merely allows you to write scripts, but that's not something I want to spend time on.

Asher:

The Resizable Form Fields extension is great. Thanks for pointing it out.

You can download other people's scripts that do lots of stuff you like to webpages. I currently use:

AntiDisabler: undoes disabling of context menu
ExpandArea: adds button to expand text entry areas (like the one i'm typing on now)
NoMiddleMan: replaces redirect pages
Y!Mail Ad Remover: obvious for Yahoo! mail users
Friend of Print Friendly: makes webpages printfriendly

You also need it to run them and combined with Platypus (which I only enable when I need, which is very occasionally) it's quite powerful. I use it to defuglify 'Poly

I've currently got:

- Fasterfox
- Adblock
- IE Tab
- Tab Mix Plus

And one I can't tell anybody about for another couple months. (Well, it better be working in a couple of months at least. )
