I have a strange thing.
In a quickie, I created a function outside of my singleton component. This
function was called
getCharPref(), and itwas defined like function getCharPref(blah,blah) {blah
blah}.
Problem: Some OTHER extension was calling it. Why? I guess it had it's own
getCharPref, but for some
reason MINE was being called. Was I overloading a global getCharPref? Should
that even be possible?
No idea. But it's definitely interesting. I could hijack other extensions with
a perfectly "safe"
extension. Gross. (re-tested with latest firefox).
