 I'm using this as the new catch-all ticket for letting users somehow use
 Flash with Tor.

 Currently we're working on three directions in parallel:

 A) Wrap the Adobe Flash plugin in policies so it can't harm us too much
 (#7008)

 B) Support Mozilla's plans to integrate a Javascript flash thingie into
 Firefox (#7500)

 C) Put the entire browser, Flash, and related stuff in a VM that can't
 talk to the outside world unsafely.
