If we add a privilege that more or less equates to the "UniversalXPConnect" of days past, is that really the web anymore? Why not just run with System Principal like Firefox does? Again, maybe we're fine with this, and maybe the B2G system app already has permissions like this (I don't know much about it - hopefully people who know more can chime in). But that's the crux of the issue we need to answer, IMO. AFAICT, the webview APIs you're comparing with are embedding APIs, and aren't ever intended to be exposed to the web. bholley _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
