I have an idea how to get native windows mozilla plugins to work in
native Linux mozilla...

as you know in Chrome each new tab is its own independent process yet
they all share a parent x-window so... if you could create a Windows
which would host an active-x plugin or just the mozilla NP_PAPI plugin
it could serve as an wrapper okay so create a generic "plugin wrapper"
for mozilla and start a new instance of wine the application that hosts
the active-x plugin and set its parent as the mozillas window... this
hosting an Active-X plugin via NP_PAPI does work in Windows btw...
