I had the misfortune of getting acquainted with COM threading
limitations, and the fact that components need to be marshaled between
threading apartments in COM.
I haven't heard of anything like that in XPCOM, and i hope that there
are no such limitations in XPCOM. Could somebody confirm or disprove this?
XPCOM does not automatically enfornce any threading model; however, many
(most) XPCOM components are designed to be used only on the main thread.
If you wish to use these components from other threads, you need to use
thread proxies (see the interfaces in xpcom/proxy/public and xpcom/thread).
