:: Details

I tried the following steps:
1) cfx init
2) copy/paste the second example in main.js
3) cfx xpi
4) cfx run (Aurora 28 as binary)

As expected, a small window with "top" opens.

Actual behavior:
nothing happens

Expected behavior:
alert popping
I think the problem is that, for reasons I don't understand, alert() isn't supported in these scripts. I tried it with console.log and it works OK, so I've updated the example.

I don't think this API will work at all in multiprocess Firefox, so it's not a good idea to start using it.
