Prism is an excellent extension that should eventually be put into Firefox.

Reproducible: Always

Do you have firefox set to never remember history? Or custom settings that clear history on close, or have a history saved for 0 days?

Sorry, wrong bug for comment 1.

Prism is no longer developed (see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Prism ).
Chromeless is the successor: http://mozillalabs.com/chromeless/

This report is missing any information *how* integration should take place, and the benefits. "Integrate $foo" reports don't help much - please describe the *functionality* that you want to see instead. Thanks!

Wow. I posted this one a long time ago. Things have since changed. I've never seen chromeless. I've only read the little bit about it that Mozilla Labs says so I don't know how it would work. I think I saw some discussion about putting some core functionality in extensions. Maybe instead of integrating, it could be some sort of optional, extension in a bundle of extensions. It would be installed by default, but someone could select "Advanced Install" or similar and specify if they wanted it or not. If they change their minds later, then they could always download/install it or uninstall it.

I don't think this will ever happen, closing.
