OK.  I've never been crazy about nsDerivedSafe, since it requires extra casts
or .get() when static_casting an nsCOMPtr to a more-derived class; we should
probably file a followup bug on finding and removing those...

I don't know if these (comment) locations are what David was thinking about;
let's do it/both...

Dehydra could certainly give us a list of places which call nsCOMPtr.get()... I'm not sure whether it has the ability to give us a list of places we can "safely" remove the .get(), because differences between the different cast styles are I think dealt with in the parser, before dehydra sees them.

Oh, I didn't see the URL link... it would certainly be worth looking at those, but I don't think that's the only places dbaron was talking about... I'm not sure, though, TBH.
