Firebug marks functions red if it thinks they are "user classes", eg
they are likely to appear in statements like
var aFoo = new Foo();
The exact meaning is that these functions have properties set on their
prototype. So the canonical way to create a reusable object in
javascript is:
function Foo() {}
Foo.prototype.bar = function theFooBar() { ... }
var aFoo = new Foo();
Firebug things this construct deserves your attention and marks these
functions in red.
