Philippe: 
Thanks for the information. I've been digging through the Mozilla.create
method and that works fine. I have a browser editor, much like ATF, that
sets up the mozilla browser. The first two lines are: 

                final Browser browser = new Browser(parent, SWT.MOZILLA); 
                final nsIWebBrowser webBrowser = (nsIWebBrowser)
browser.getWebBrowser(); 

The webBrowser turns out to be null and, upon debugging, I find that I get
an InvocationTargetException in the getWebBrowser() method.  The relevant
code is: 

                Class clazz = Class.forName ("org.mozilla.xpcom.Mozilla");
//$NON-NLS-1$ 
                Method method = clazz.getMethod ("getInstance", new
Class[0]); //$NON-NLS-1$ 
                Object mozilla = method.invoke (null, new Object[0]); 
                method = clazz.getMethod ("wrapXPCOMObject", new Class[]
{Long.TYPE, String.class}); //$NON-NLS-1$ 
                webBrowserObject = method.invoke (mozilla, new Object[] {new
Long (webBrowser.getAddress ()), nsIWebBrowser.NS_IWEBBROWSER_IID_STR}); 
                return webBrowserObject; 

The exception happens at line 1258, webBrowserObject = method.invoke...Of
course, there's nothing in the catch blocks so I have no idea regarding the
root cause of the InvocationTargetException. 
So, it's not in the Mozilla.create method I'm having the problem. 
I have no problem if I register the xulrunner installation via
--register-global.

Hey Mike, no it is perfectly appropriate.
Xulrunner does not have to be registered.
When a Browser with SWT.MOZILLA style is instantiated, a suitable Xulrunner
is searched, from the most specific to the least specific.
The code is in the SWt method Mozilla.create (Composite parent, int style) 
here:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt/Eclipse%20SWT%20Moz
illa/common/org/eclipse/swt/browser/Mozilla.java?revision=1.67&view=markup

The search sequence is roughly: (check the code for exact details)
- lookup a xulrunner at the location  contained in the System property:
org.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath
- if not defined, try to initiallized a xulrunner that is registered
(globally or user, usually global)
- if failing then fallback to the mozilla pointed by the MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME
envrionment variable.
if everything fails (including not finding an embeddable mozilla runtine or
xulrunner that is embeddable and satifies the versions constraints
(GreVersionRange), then fail.

Therefore the way ATF does it is to provide an extension point such that:
- we can ship a xulrunner as an OSGI bundle
- the extension markup points inside that bundle that contains a proper
xulrunner
- the extension looks that up and if found, creates the
org.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath sys prop. It tries to do that at
startup time, so that we can be the very first to initialize a xulrunner.
The first code to instantiates a xulrunner wins. we do for now.

Then we just instantiate the browser widget when needed, and the sequence is
that defined in SWT, taking into account our system property.
