Can variables defined in files in the components/ directory of a XPI conflict
Each JS component has its own script global object, so they don't conflict
either with each other or with DOM windows.
The Greasemonkey component uses mozIJSSubscriptLoader to load scripts from the
extension part of Greasmonkey. Why would they do it this way?
Writing them as individual components would of course give each file a
separate global namespace. While it's possible to do this, it's harder
for the developer as the components can only be created via the
component manager. Nor can the components share utility functions. As an
aside, it also means that even if it could be made to work in SeaMonkey
1.0.x it would have to be installed globally.
