If the plugin and the embedding app "know" about each other, perhaps it would be
better to do it the other way around - from your embedding app, load the page,
locate the plugin via the DOM and then set the correct nsIWebBrowser pointer on it
via some custom interface it implements. This saves having to find your way up to
the top from the plugin, treading on lots of private interfaces on the way.
