I am much more interested in these abilities...to check validity and updates. How is it done with kplugin?
Hope I understand what You say.
My info might be outdated. Cave... And I might sound defeatist.
Last time I checked K-Meleon's ability to use Firefox bookmarks-manager XUL.
Well, it sort of worked.
But cave.
For attention it competed with bookmarks plugin. If I remember correctly, the K-Meleon plugin was out of order after I'd used any of the XUL.
& so I could use only either during the same browsing session.
Now some extensions need/use standart XUL as a backend. IMHO there is little chance.
See dirupted's answer - & he is far better with adapting XUL than me.
You will need more than any XUL or macro coder's knowledge. You will need c++. Currently only Dorian & mark307 code c++ for K-Meleon. And You need this knowledge to get the competing backends (XUL & plugin) to work side by side.
Most likely You are on Your own. With 2 steep learning curves for c++ and XUL.
Plus as far as AFAIK the FF extension is for a GRE version that uses squlite for bookmarks. Most likely You need to wait for the change from 1.8 -> 1.9 GRE to have any chance at all. I worked with Firefox 2 XUL.
