charlie's copying sounds like it has some overlap with the containment-saving 
soc idea... but since nobody's shown much interest in that, it probably won't 
matter.

if we get a soc project for redoing the appletbrowser, I guess you'll need to 
co-ordinate this with them.

hmm, yes. that does need sorting out. and if we get more community-stuff like 
this in KDE (and I hope we do) then it'll probably look to this to see how to 
do the security. :)

in general this sounds pretty awesome. :) really looking forward to seeing 
this project completed.
