What does our 1.9.2b1 compat promise mean for changes to things like
nsIDocument?  Should I be creating nsIDocument_MOZILLA_1_9_2 as needed?

When we ship Firefox 3.6 Beta 1 we will be allowing add-on authors to
mark their extensions as being compatible with 3.6.*, and telling them
that we will not make changes that break add-on compatibility if at all
possible. In fact, we're going to ask them to raise problems like mkaply
did if they run into them.

I'm not sure if nsIDocument is something that's going to be used by
Add-ons, but if it is, then yeah, you should poof up additional
interfaces as needed.

cheers,
mike

Binary add-ons have a tendency to use it, yeah.

OK, additional interfaces it is.
