Details

A full-screen plug-in should be an nsIDocumentViewer and support
kIDocumentViewerIID. I noticed this because the throbber never stops on a
full-screen plug-in. Stopping depends on getting an nsIDocumentViewer, which the
PluginViewerImpl is not.

Alex any update on this bug?  QA assigned to whitebox, gerardok
It is true that the throbbing code only gets called if the viewer implements the
nsIDocumentViewer interface, but I do not think the solution is to make the
plugin viewer implement this (it is intended for a viewer that uses the layout
enginer to layout data).  An nsIContentViewer derived viewer should also stop
the throbber.  The relavent code is in nsWebShell::OnConnectionsComplete().

I'll figure out who to assign this to (it's whoever owns the webshell code).

There is also a crash that occurs in this same function (bug 1157) and it may be
related.
Rick - who owns the webshell code?

Someone re-coded the logic for the dispatch of the all connections complete
notification and this is not fixed.

If you leave bugs alone long enough, they just fix themselves... :-)
cohn, please could you verify this bug or provide a testcase to verify it.
Thanks!
Seems to work for me now.
