Need to change how unknown content type handler is invoked so it can be 
overridden by embedding clients.  Some details below, more at URL above; danm 
will be happy to help and answer questions.

UI Posed by Gecko (Up Calls)
============================
These are calls to window.open, in one form or another, which are relevant to 
embedding. They're split into calls and callers, where a call is considered to 
be a base-level call to window.open which should be API-ized like we're 
discussing, and a caller is something which currently uses window.open but 
should use one of these new APIs when they're created.

I've tried to categorize these sensibly... Each category implies a UI-posing 
component with methods for each item marked "CALL" in that category. Items 
marked "CALLER" in a given category may imply a new method in that component 
(eg. the print dialog stuff), or may just be a caller of some other extant 
method in a different component (eg. the uri loader opening a new window).

Apologies for all the bug spam. For the detailed overview of this task, see
danm's document:

  http://www.mozilla.org/xpfe/embedding-dialogs.html

See my first cut at a component-wise categorization:

And if you want to laugh, see also my brainless incomplete IDL for these components:

Changing summar; the term "unknown content" is now extremely deprecated.

Spam: new helper app dialog not making mozilla0.9, unfortunately.

OK, moving back to mozilla0.9 'cause these are "embedding" bugs.

Bill, you can move this to 0.9.1, unless you have other need for it in 0.9.

We changed our minds; targetting 0.9.1 now.
