Seeing as we're doing everything lazily these days, why not centalise the code to import modules lazily. This would replace ugly boilerplate code like this: get _manager () { var temp = {}; Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/LightweightThemeManager.jsm", temp); delete this._manager; return this._manager = temp.LightweightThemeManager; }, with a simple XPCOMUtils.defineLazyModuleImporter(LightWeightThemeWebInstaller, "_manager", "resource://gre/modules/LightweightThemeManager.jsm", "LightweightThemeManager");
