Manual filtering of the datasources can take several seconds on slow machines.
If we mark each datasource as suitable for all platforms it will avoid this.

I also rewrapped all the Descriptions, including the windows-only one.

Depends how you measure it ;-) Median of three runs on my P3 733MHz:
2.678 Time spent filtering datasources
3.524 Total script execution time
6.007 Total window open time
So, about 3/4 of the JS is spent filtering datasources, while overall the window will appear to open 1.8 times more quickly.
Fix checked in.
