Using bug 851178, it shouldn't be too hard to pass in window to an __init method.  For constructors, this will just be a matter of adding a window argument.  Then we can remove the init() stuff that uses nsIDOMGlobalPropertyInitializer.

The main annoyance will be that for navigator we don't have a ctor sitting around, so one will have to be synthesized.

The drawback will be that things on navigator will have to write __init() whether or not they care about window, but that seems like a small price to pay.
