Hi there, I pushed that gerrit request.. https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/9644/. Most things have already been mentioned, but...
>regarding (2) the problem is that users could have created documents >that contain embedded plug-ins Which AFAICT is also broken, tried this on Ubuntu 14.04 and WinXP. Example file: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/attachment.cgi?id=81036 > do browsers nowadays sand-box plug-ins appropriately? can the LO plug-in > even be sand-boxed? I believe the major ones get sandboxed (or maybe just Flash) and google's move to PPAPI allows for better sandboxing. I don't believe either are relevant for LibreOffice though. As mentioned earlier, plugins in general are on the way out. I don't think it makes sense to invest in NPAPI while the browser vendors are trying to kill it themselves. Just to clarify my commit message in regards to the "needed" GUI/ActiveX changes. We still have an ActiveX browser (or more?) plugin that I also haven't been able to get to work. I was going to wait on removing the plugin hooks from the GUI until we decide if we want to drop that too. Seems consistent to remove them all at the same time... (any Win devs interested in doing that?) Thanks! Bryan P.S. At one point could you load a webpage with an embedded LibreOffice doc in it, that has an embedded Flash swf in it? _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
