The way it is now, the implementations do have (the appearance of)
different signitures.
When you implement a Getter for instance, the generated header file is:
GetFoo(nsAWritableString & afoo) = 0;
your implementation is:
GetFoo(nsAString& aFoo);
So an implementor using the generated header files as a reference could
be mislead.
Right?
