1659625 - Expose DOMLocalization interface to UA widgets

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Internationalization, task)

Description

[James Teh [:Jamie]]

UA widgets such as videocontrols currently use DTD localisation. However, we're no longer allowed to add new DTD strings. So, any new strings need to use Fluent. That's currently not possible because DOMLocalization is a chrome only interface, whereas UA widgets run in a content document with an extended principal JavaScript sandbox. We need to expose the DOMLocalization interface (and by extension, Localization) to UA widgets.

This is needed in order for UA widgets to use Fluent.

Thanks for taking it! I assume this will fix bug 1504363, right?

I'm ok with the change, but looping in :smaug for DOM approval.

Oh blerg. Sorry, I'm completely unfamiliar with this area, so didn't find the existing bug. 😳 it does seem this is effectively a duplicate, but the patch is attached to it now, so... 🤷‍♂️
