This is not easy from C++. Everything is documented here: http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.embedding/browse_thread/thread/b6aa3bd52d4a5be7# and, upon suggestion by BZbarsky, I file this feature request. Thx. Reproducible: Always Expected Results: Some easier and atomic way to access, start and stop a plugin from a single place.

Gecko 2.0 moved many plugin-related interfaces to private state, so my code to start and stop plugins is now broken. I think this raises the need and importance of this requests.

We're in the process of removing support for plugins (bug 1677160), so I think this bug is irrelevant now.
