Details

nsMainThreadPtrHolder exists to safely handle main-thread-only pointers off the main thread. As more and more stuff moved off the main thread, the need for releasing objects only on the owning thread (which used to be the main thread) has increased. There is already a variation of this class and we are adding a new one in D163938. It would be nice to generalize nsMainThreadPtrHolder, so we wouldn't need to create all these ad hoc classes.
