Details

For background, please see bug #3264. Because of this lack, nsIFileLocator is currently not available in viewer. This is not a big deal, but perhaps it is a bigger deal for embedding applications.

What is an nsIFileLocator? This sounds separate from the nsFileSpec work we're signing up for.

You're right. It lives in AppShell (though it wraps nsFileLocations). Reassigning to mcmullen.

This is a viewer-specific problem, i.e. it doesn't affect apprunner. So priority is low and who says we'll ever fix this anyway. :-)
Moving all libPref component bugs to new Preferences: Backend component. libPref component will be deleted.

Move to M16 for now ...

I can find no reference to either an nsIFileLocator nor a file locator service in either the mozilla or netscape trees. I have to assume that time has rendered this bug invalid.
