mano

I probably won't get home on time, so here are the notes for today.

Async login manager: XPCOM and js-module APIs, plus a fake-async implementation are posted on the bug for review and feedback. Once the APIs are finalized and approved, we're going to land this and start fixing all in tree callers (mostly tests). The callers will be fixed incrementally. In parallel, the fake-async implementation will be replaced by Neil's work (It's still unclear if we can do that gradually. I'll comment on that later).

ttaubert

  • Continued the fight against reflows.
  • Added nsIDOMWindowUtils.getBoundsWithoutFlushing() (bug 878801).
  • Landed support for reflow observers (bug 453650).
  • Almost ready to enable newtab page preloading by default (bug 791670).
  • Worked on getting rid of browser.stop() call in addTab() (bug 878747).
  • Reviews.
