Why does Mozilla expect apps to use an ABI:
* which didn't exist when the apps were written and
* which they aren't even using for their own apps?

Everyone complains about M$ using internal W32 APIs in IE, why does Mozilla 
do the same with internal xulrunner APIs? If you think everyone should use 
the stable ABI, why is Firefox not using it?
