Hi,

In general I dont think that is a good idea to do that as you said
we'll have to patch all the rev deps of xulrunner. More importantly
we'll have to carry on those patches forever because we're doing non
"standard" things.

I don't know how hard it would be but I think that's the best option.
Alexis.
