Because "firefox.exe -venkman" causes the venkman command line handler 
to run which opens a venkman window and this happens before the firefox 
window opens?

I guessing that "firefox.exe -venkman" means that at least the command 
line handlers have to run, and thus the components in each extension 
would have to be registered to see if they have command line handlers.
Therefore at least we compile extensions/*/components/*.js and call all 
the NSGetModule() and run command line handlers? In the order given by 
that funky m- rule? Is that stuff what you mean by services?
