[Bug 192888] Re: firefox crashes on flash contents when using libflashsupport

I've been using nspluginwrapper for Flash for quite a long time now, and
it has always been much less annoying to have just the plugin crash than
the whole browser. I take the view that proprietary binary blobs are
almost as bad in the browser as in the kernel, so any step to uncouple
them is good IMO. (Obviously it would be best if the Flash plugin were
made open source and/or Flash itself opened up, but that's up to Adobe.)

BTW Conn, while your nspluginwrapper package works, I'm intrigued as to
what exactly it does. Does it have special magic for the Flash plugin or
does it work for others as well?
