If you are writing in a chrome overlay using a XUL window to inject from that is wrapped in a XPCNativeWrapper there are no JS collisions to worry about. You can operate this way inside their DOM without hurting the script on the page. I have been working on some plug and play adapters for working with XUL and FF addons that look to be getting interest from Rey Bango of the FF dev team so hopefully it will get published when it is done and can ease some of these developer issues with DOM and namespace...
