In bug 1329154 we've added BrowserApp to the GeckoView window which breaks some modules that identify GeckoView windows by the absence of BrowserApp.
The windowtype should be a reliable way to detect GeckoView windows.
Do we use this type of check anymore else?

What do you think about just checking for the feature? (e.g. `chromeWin.NativeWindow && chromeWin.NativeWindow.doorhanger`)

So if we ever have a `NativeWindow.doorhanger` implementation for GeckoView we would use that automatically.

This feels a little backwards. I think it should be `isBrowserJS`, and we should compare against "navigator:browser".
