Comment:

 Hm... I actually think we should try to get that into a xpcshell test as
 these are more lightweight and Mozilla recommends using Mochitests only if
 we can't use xpcshell (see: http://ehsanakhgari.org/wp-
 content/uploads/talks/test-mozilla/ slide 15). And having different
 domains should be not a problem either as one can add identities to the
 HTTP server (see e.g.: https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 central/source/security/manager/ssl/tests/unit/head_psm.js#434). If that
 means "You get your xpcshell test only if you write it!" then be it so. :)
 This might even help us directly as our xpcshell testing is not as broken
 as our mochitest testing IIRC (but I might be wrong here).
