794999 - [Trustworthy UI] Create an abstract trusted UI component

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Fernando Jiménez Moreno [:ferjm]]

We probably want to create a trusted UI component that can be used to trigger the UI from chrome code and might also add some other valuable functionality to it, like an API to control (hide/show) the trusted UI from the embedded content.

Just to note - this isn't a v1 blocker, this is basically creating a "cleaner" solution for the trusted UI solution such that we reuse a singular component. If I'm wrong, please correct me.

Actually, this bug was supposed to track the platform work related to the creation of an abstract trusted UI XPCOM component, which is out of scope for v1.

I've filed bug 801561 for the work related to the Gaia side of the trusted UI.

ferjm - can you clarify why you think this should block for v1.1?

Comment 6

[Fernando Jiménez Moreno [:ferjm]]

Actually, this probably should not block as it is a nice to have to ease the development of features that we are probably going to implement for v1.1. Sorry for the noise.

Since this is not a blocker, minusing for tracking, but a low risk fix can be nominated for uplift.

I don't think this will ever happen. We are getting rid of the trusted UI.
