could you make this point a bit more clear? I thought it was simpler
than that: you click on the plugin, the plugin can either handle the
event itself, or it may need to tell the browser to load a different
page. In the second case, the plugin sets the nav-url of its own
property bag with the new URL to load. mozilla-bonobo, which is
listening for changes of that particular property, is notified and
instructs the browser to load the requested page, and that's it.
