Comment(by jdreed):
So it does indeed look like FF 8 will give us this. Yay.
Can we give up on the extension and do everything in a wrapper script? I
think we can, modulo the "Athena On-Line Help" entry in the Help menu, but
nobody uses menus anyway, anymore. We can at least do `network.negotiate-
auth.trusted-uris` and all the other prefs. And can probably do something
awesome with certutil.
