For bug 31982, I need an interface like nsIFormSubmitObserver, but which gets called after the channel is obtained. I need to replace the nsIFormSubmitObserver in nsSecureBrowserUIImpl with one which queries the channel over which the form will be submitted before deciding whether or not to veto the form submission.

Added [NEEDINFO]. Is this critical for nsbeta3?. The bug it blocks is NOT marked nsbeta3+ and there seems to be some controversy about whether bug 31982 needs to be fixed?
Summary: Need form submit observer which gets channel → [NEEDINFO]Need form submit observer which gets channel
Bug 31982 would fix bug 47496 and greatly simplify a fix for 31999. It may be blocking 31999. Per conversations I've had with dougt, there is no longer any controversy about whether bug 31982 should be fixed. This bug blocks the form submit part of bug 31982. It would be possible to only fix the content viewing part of 31982, leaving different rules for determining security of form posts and retrieved data.
Marking nsbeta3- for now. If the bug it blocks is marked nsbeta3+ will reconsider.

Rick, could this be done with a load observer? (We don't have the channel anywhere in form submit land...)
I am going to need the channel in form submitter for my planned fix to bug 72906. Let me see if I understand this, you want to find out the nsIRequest when the channel is opened? Or do you just need an event that tells you that a channel /has/ opened? With what I currently have in mind we could do either, but if something goes wrong we may have to fall back on the second. If that's what you need, I can pretty easily take care of this when bug 72906 is done (though it's going to depend on my time).
The blocking bug is fixed.
