Ah, yes. Makes every bonobo component a front-line remotely vulnerable
app, as well as the mozilla-bonobo glue code. I tend not to browse
"non-trusted" sites, and really like the feature for browsing local
files (I have a lot of HTML "index" pages with PDF links). But then,
aside from local files, what can be "trusted"?
Thanks for the explanation,
