Yes, we know.  This was deemed the lesser of two evils....

So, are you working on a *real* solution on this ? a *real* solution means, a solution which permit us to use a custom tree view in a remote app.

There is some discussion in bug 326501 about a way to do this; see comment 11 for the summary. I'm not sure whether anyone is working on this, offhand... :( It's worth filing a bug to track work on it and request blocking of Gecko 1.8.1 and 1.9a2 or something.

Ok

(sorry, i cannot read the comment, i'm not allowed to access to the bug ;-) )


Note that if your app has the UniversalBrowserWrite capability, we will allow you to set a custom view right now. That might be ok as a workaround in some cases....

Yes,i know. But you cannot ask to the user to change the pref signed.applets.codebase_principal_support in his config ("type about:config, search "signed.." bla bla), and then ask him his agreement for the "UniversalBrowserWrite" capability etc.. It's too complex and too restricting for a "normal" user...


Thanks

Laurent.
