I swear, we are on the same wavelength. :) I just added some
examples to Mozilla::DOM (0.07). There's also a problem I realized
where if the get_nsIWebBrowser part is not compiled in,
then calling it on $embed would fail. I was wanting to do
a lot of experimenting to see what all I could do now, anyway.

instead of a bogus pointer.
