Lite-weight Embedding IPC API for Mozilla based applications with native UI.
Basic architecture is very close to WebKit2, and MicroB
Benefits of new architecture comparing to default mozilla embedding
* No XUL/XPCOM heavy content in UI process (Best memory footprint, fast startup) * IPC use current Mozilla Chromium/IPDL implementation (mostly tested with current FF/Mobile) * Rendering based on Shadow/Shadowable layers tree (same as content rendering in XUL Mobile FF) * IPC provide ability to load memory greedy content in child process and kill it without increasing memory usage for Main UI application process
