This isn't possible to do in a way that meets user expectations in all cases, and I don't envy anyone who tries too hard to approximate it. Probably the findbar code should continue implementing its own checking, unless you're aware of other actual consumers that could reuse the same code. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
