First off is this possible at all? like using: [@mozilla.org/security/
entropy;1] or is there any
I have this so far, which seem to produce a good set of random bytes:
buffer = '';
var PRNG = Components.classes['@mozilla.org/security/random-generator;
1'];
var rg = PRNG.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIRandomGenerator);
randomBytes = rg.generateRandomBytes (32, buffer);

Then you need to persuade Hixie not to standardize it, otherwise people
