Create an HTTP facility (transport, not rendering) for desktop apps that shares cache and cookies with the browser -- basically export the firefox http engine. A dbus-exported [http://svn.mugshot.org/dumbhippo/trunk/client/linux/src/hippo-dbus-http.c proof-of-concept] exists which which shows some basic structure. A better solution would support more http features, avoid the dbus daemon for large files, and use Firefox instead of libcurl. One challenge is making this work when Firefox is not running.

== Localized Search in Firefox Search Box ==
 
Firefox features a search box that can be customized to work with different search engines (e.g., Google, Yahoo!, Wikipedia). Most websites have their own search facilities, but the location of the search box on the page varies considerably. Create a mechanism for Firefox to pick up a website's search mechanism and make it accessible to the user through the Firefox search box, so that users have a consistent place to look for site-specific search. This might use a mechanism similar to [http://www.rssboard.org/rss-autodiscovery feed autodiscovery].
