I was contacted re the plugin at http://www.602.cz/lin/download_form_filler
It is an Xt plugin using XtWindowToWidget and XtAddEventHandler.
Apparently they have government clients.
I haven't tried the plugin.  It looks like it starts a wine process.  I don't know much more than that.

Until bug 544088 is fixed, Xt plugins will fail when run out of process, so we should add know Xt plugins to the list.

Requesting ".x+".

This is a pref-only change adding another plugin to an existing oop-blacklist for Xt plugins such as this plugin.  The plugin authors confirm that their plugin works fine with this preference set.  I expect the proportion of our users with this plugin is small, but the risk to those without in zero.

Cancelling approval request. Please re-request approval for the release after Firefox 4, when the patch has had some time on the trunk. In the meantime, users have a workaround via the pref in the patch.
