Comment (by huseby):

 Or better yet, can you implement it as a mochitest unit test and submit a
 patch?  I think it would be really good for me to start uplifting all of
 these unit tests to mainline.  I figure out a way to make them NOT run by
 default, but it would be great to have them for testing purposes as I re-
 factor and uplift other patches.
