Details

Currently we create a nested iframe inside the GFX/general Shumway iframe for the Shumway player. That means that the player can still do network requests directly and do whatever the DOM allows it to do. To make our sandboxing verifiable, we should instead create a completely isolated sandbox for the player and pass it in to the Shumway iframe. Then we can give it an interface in much the same way we currently give the Shumway iframe an interface to privileged script. Yury, CCing you because it's related to stuff you frequently work on, but if you don't think "oh, this sounds interesting, I'd like to work on it", then this is just an FYI and I'll work on it.

The player moved into iframe with only script execution rights -- origin related functions are disabled. https://github.com/mozilla/shumway/pull/2098 DOM access is still needed for media stuff, e.g. sounds (Web Audio, <audio>) and video (<MediaSource>). See also bug 1047150.

We still want this but it doesn't block shipping.
