Can XUL/XBL just be ``compiled-down" to proper HTML, or is there also a security issue in that Gecko allows XUL/XBL to break rules needed to securely render HTML?
That's a good question. I don't know the answer, but I'm curious as well. If it is an option, might be a good interim solution, perhaps not for the main UI (where performance is one of the main goals) but it could be useful to help the plugin ecosystem transition over.
