I guess the names will grow identical some day, what I mentioned before (the
regular XMLHttpRequest) is part of the Extensions system (and maybe also
part of the User Scripts, but I have not verified that). It is not
considered as part of the Greasemonkey support. So, officially (and not
officially, since you have to add a command line switch to make User Scripts
work in the first place), there is no support for native Greasemonkey API.

I am not sure an official support is planned anyhow and I am really not sure
the API will be persistent.
