[Greasemonkey] Inspecting / Modifying global in-page variables in 0.6

[Gareth Andrew]

Hi Jeremy

I have to admit I really don't fully understand the XPCNativeWrapper
docs.  My understanding (seemingly wrong) was that unsafeWindow isn't an
XPCNativeWrapper, its the wrapped object underneath [1].   I also
thought that the window object in regular javascript was not wrapped (or
a lot of dhtml code will be broken by ff1.5).  My conclusion based on
these probably faulty assumptions is that there are no XPCNativeWrappers
involved. Where did I go wrong?
