It sort of ran underneath the Squeak display; the X server was munged to 
make hole to let the mozilla window poke through. Sounds horrible, 
seemed to be a leading cause of insanity in the people that worked on 
it, worked ok.

I think I'd prefer to see if there  is any way to make mozilla render 
onto an external pixmap managed by SurfacePlugin asnd just blt that into 
the Display. Then the tricky bit is making sure input events for the 
mozilla window actually get there rather than being peeled off into 
Squeak. Think of it as  using the gecko renderer (or any other good html 
renderer) as a server.
