Those look like configuration screens, much like our protocol pref 
windows (send-email-as-FTP-password, etc.).  svn: is it possible to use 
protozilla protocols without any having to bring up those windows, 
assuming that you have the proper configuration entries in ?

(Why is the presence of a UI requirement -- above and beyond nsIPrompt, 
of course, which most of our protocols use -- a barrier to entry into 
the hallowed netwerk/protocol/ tree?  I'm not unhappy with it being an 
extension, I'm just not clear on what the criteria are.)
