279049 - Implement p3ptype

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core Graveyard :: XForms, defect, P5)

Description

[aaronr]

Right now the MDG sets the value of p3ptype MIP on the bound instance data
nodes, but we don't do anything with it.  We need to figure out how to tie it in
to Mozilla's p3p implementation.

extensions/p3p is as far as I can see 1) old, as in only works for the suite, and 2) handles policies and not "p3p types"

So we need to look somewhere else I think. We should still tie in with some generic mechanism. This is not XForms specific.

Rumor is that the p3p code is going to get pulled from the tree.  As Allan noted, it is old.  So we won't plan on making this work until some P3P technology is available for Firefox.
