== Dynamic Instrumentation for Chrome/Content Interaction ==
== Deploy Dynamic Analysis to mozilla-central ==
 
Followup to the initial dynamic analaysis goal: clean up the patch that is written, write some simple testcases to ensure correct behavior, and land the analysis to mozilla-central debug builds (off by default).


We want to identify:

* non message-manager scripts
== Make basic Firefox navigation use the Message Manager ==
* which touch a "content object"
* or implement nsIWebProgressListener


Definitions:
In order to make the dynamic analysis useful for estimating Firefox frontend work, we need basic page navigation to not produce any warnings. This means that current uses of web progress listeners in the Firefox frontend should be ported to the message manager.


Non message-manager script is any chrome script that isn't run through nsIChromeFrameMessageManager.loadFrameScript.

Goal date: 21-July


Content objects are at least the following:
== Connect the chrome/content accessibility tree on Windows ==


* Any DOM object (window, document, or node)
Implement the basic a11y plan on Windows with a hidden HWND and a connected cross-process a11y tree.
* Docshell or docshell derivative
* nsIWebProgress
* nsIDOMWindowUtils
