The idea for that was that lots of scripts running on a single page
would start to stomp on each other for basic UI interactions.

Providing a single structured place for buttons and actions seemed
like a reasonable thing to do.  I still think this is a good idea. 
And I intend to also support context menu command reg, which I suppose
is also possible with event listeners and onclick div creation, but
again, it seems better supported within XUL.

And it didn't used to leak :-/
