"Integrate" - I mean that in Android browser, when browser loads an
HTML page that contains the following new MIME Type in <Object> tag,
then like other Webkit based browsers, Android brower should also load
and create instance of associated my browser plug-in.

       <object type="application/x-mytype" width="100%" height="100%"
data="...">
                        <param name="source" value="..."/>
       </object>

I am using Android 1.5 SDK on Windows XP (but can switch to any other
required OS), so, I want the following clarifications:
1) Can I develop a new plug-in based on Netscape Plugin Model (NPAPIs)
using C/C++ language for Android Browser?
2) How can I install/register new plugin on Android Device and
Emulator?

Please provide reference(s) to related documentation, if available.
