openDialog is being used for non-dialogs.  It shouldn't be.

Summary: openDialog should not be used for non-dialogs. → openDialog method should be renamed
Target Milestone: M11 → M12
We need the functionality of openDialog to pass a URL to be loaded into a
specific window type. So the real problem is not that openDialog shouldn't be
used for non-dialogs, but that the name should be changed to something more
appropriate, such as openWithArgs.
Can't you do that with the CGI-bin chrome URL syntax?
