My new jsconsole command-line-handler component, for ./mozilla -jsconsole, only causes mozilla to open up the jsconsole. I'd like mozilla to be smart enough to realize that -jsconsole is a supporting, secondary window, like -console (I assume, as I am only in Linux, that ./mozilla -console opens both the console and the browser). Command-line handlers not marked as secondary will not cause the browser to be opened, so ./mozilla -jsconsole -edit will open up the jsconsole and the editor. The term 'secondary' is lame, BTW. Can't think of a better term just now.
moving to m18, not going to happen any time soon.

Moving to FUTURE. Perhaps you could implement your -jsconsole the same way they implemented -console and live without this feature.
