Firefox 3.6 doesn't implement it exactly, since it was changed after
Firefox's implementation, but the changes should mostly be compatible

it has to read them into memory.

But anyway, what's the point in telling people to install an extension
if we can just tell them to upgrade Firefox?  Something like
two-thirds of our Firefox users are already on 3.6:
