That means it's ripe for a sugar-based UI!<br>
<br>
I actually think the "popups included in parent window" model is a<br>
better fit for the XO than any of the gecko-based browsers we've got<br>
so far. You can drag tabs and popups out into their own "window"<br>
which would be the equivalent of creating a separate "activity<br>
instance" in the frame for them. The security model is very<br>
compatible with bitfrost, as is their javascript VM.<br>
<br>
I'm actually intrigued by the possibility of using the V8 javascript<br>
VM to run python bytecodes; their VM seems much better suited to<br>
executing python than many of the other VMs that have been targeted in<br>
the past, and the caching and serialization mechanisms provided would<br>
allow us to do the "rainbow pre-fork" stuff, but much better. The<br>
real question is whether it could be made to coexist with modules<br>
written to the existing python native code interface, since pygtk Must<br>
Work.<br>
