Yeah, I need to figure out something about that. The issue, in a
nutshell, is that if we make the Instantbird script a subclass of the
Gecko script, other things in the basic chat functionality seem to
break; if we make it instead be a subclass of the Default script, all
the chat functionality seems to work but browsing the history doesn't.

I'll come up with something.... 

Take care.
