I'm playing with the XO Browse activity and have opened a local file
that requires UniversalXPConnect privileges. It failed

In Firefox, when I request
netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege
from a local file, I get prompted. When I do it from an http url, it
fails silently.

In the XO Browser, it failed silently doing it from a file: url

Does any one know if it is possible to enable the prompt behaviour? I
tried setting to true signed.applets.codebase_principal_support but it
did not seem to have any effect.

The doc that failed was a local copy of
http://firefoxprivileges.tiddlyspot.com/
that -shameless plug- when downloaded, provides a nice interface to
manage per-file privileges.

Thanks in advance.
