Comment(by ma1):

 @mikeperry:
 The channel/window matching hack is there because some extensions which
 use hidden browsers (usually for prerendering) caused new windows to be
 spawned instead of frame navigations and similar unpleasant issues. As you
 can see, my noscript-merge.sh bash script attached above takes care of
 replacing the ABE dependency with equivalent self-contained code.

 @pde:
 Sorry, I have to rejected your patch ;)
 The ClassID in my code is correct (__without__ the trailing ";1"), but
 it's there for Fx 3.x legacy compatibility: Safe Browsing needed to be
 invoked explicitly that way in Gecko 1.9.1, now (Gecko >= 2) it's
 hardcoded and the component is gone.
