Details

There is no primary frame, things crash in weirdly spectacular ways. <bz> I was going to make this code robust to that <bz> by making it possible to start up a new process without having the widgetry yet <bz> And then hooking up the widgets as needed <bsmedberg> ok I'm not sure whether it's possible to go ahead and create the docshell and start doing actual loading on the child side unless there's a widget; technical the content *process* already exists (it's a singleton), it's the PIFrameEmbeddingParent which currently requires a widget. Taking for now, since bz is still busy with reviews and such.
jdm, this is related to the asynchronous launching in bug 517963, or at least might cause painful merge conflicts.
We need to make the loading without a widget work, imo; it works now (without e10s) and people rely on it.
