Whilst we're on the subject of plug-ins, that just reminded me -
somebody was asking the other day about plug-ins in NetSurf.  I know
the RISC OS version has the Acorn plugin protocol, but is it possible
to use a similar approach to implement the Netscape plugin API on
other platforms?

Estimate of amount of work required?  I have little incentive to do
this myself until there is evidence of somebody writing/porting a
useful plug-in, but I may tackle it in the future if it's not a big
hassle rewrite type job.

This would be particulary useful for the gtk version I'd have thought,
given they have proper Java and Flash Netscape API plugins ready to
go.

(moved to the dev list as it is more relevant there)
