With lynx run as a regular user, I don't really think you can get any security issues: aside from the usual "oops" style bugs that pop up in any code base. I find lynx easier to navigate with (via keyboard) then links out of box, but maybe it's because I've used lynx a lot longer. The way links lays out pages, you really are not missing that much beyond images and javascript. It's close enough that there is little mental change to usage from gui browsers, anymore then using kedit after living with notepad.

@Carpetsmoker yes they do and with better markup then I've seen on many sites, but the web is about content not sex appeal ;-)
