The navigator object is not available, but an equivalent "refreshPlugins()"
method was added to the Install context in mid-March. I will have to check
to see where the autoReg call was added to see if the Install version will
pick up the change. If autoReg functionality does not get added to
navigator.plugins.refresh() --and I don't think it should-- then XPInstall
should add a refreshComponents() method.
