Details
Currently FUEL is built of XPCOM interfaces, which limits flexibility of the API. You can't return JavaScript objects or pass them as parameters, consumers can't set custom properties on the predefined FUEL objects, everything is statically typed etc. We just can't take advantage of all kinds of useful JavaScript techniques used in modern libraries. Now that Components.utils.import() provides an ability to easily import and share code modules between contexts, I think it would a good idea to turn FUEL into a pure JavaScript library. It could be automatically loaded in the main Firefox window and we could have a handy global method for importing it into other contexts.
