Thanks for reminding me about this; I had forgotten the Mozzila folks
had been working on this.  I'm not sure what happened to that effort,
since as I recall they never came back with a revised patch set.

My apologies if that was because they were waiting for something from
me, but I maybe Dhaval can let us know if they took this work any
further?
