jspubtd.h is now pretty big for a "include this everywhere" file. It forward declares lots of types, defines quite a few more, and even has a few inline method definitions. And we're moving away from monolithic headers -- goodbye jsapi.h, hello js/*.h -- and jspubtd.h falls in that tradition. The good news is that 98% of Gecko's needs would be met by a new file of this type that only contained the following forward declarations and typedefs: - Definitely: JSContext, JSObject, Value, Handle, MutableHandle, HandleValue, MutableHandleValue - Maybe: JSString, jsid, Rooted, and all remaining Rooted/Handle + JSObject/JSString/jsid combinations. So yes, this could be done.
