Great Todd, thanks!

I spent a couple of hours yesterday trying to use this on OS X, to no  
avail.  I'm not at all a guru on writing components, so it's most  
likely my fault.

I tried one of the samples from the pyxpcom CVS and got an error  
trying to grab the sample component.  I blew away the profile for the  
xulrunner sample application (to make sure the registries weren't  
interfering), to no avail.  I tried going back to the drawing board,  
which means running xpidl...and wow, it's quite a chore trying to get  
xpidl on OS X.

I then tried doing something using pydom, meaning, <script  
type="application/x-python"> .  That didn't work...is PyDOM not part of  
the equation?

My next step is to slow down, make a very isolated "Hello World", then  
document the exact steps I tried to take.
