(Creating a new thread for it.)

So, I started looking into it.And as you wrote, in order to implement this
function for all of the platforms (is it even logical to implement a
feature like an event only for certain platforms?), I will need to set the
ENABLE_XSS_SUPPORT to 1 (like the comment there says).
I just want to know whether I am wasting my time here, or it can really be
taken into consideration.

Now, Aaron suggested it might be a good idea to use the Extensions system as
a playground for new features such as this one, so I thought about
implementing it as "chrome.onsystemidle". Does this make sense? acceptable?
other suggestions?
