I see. I was going by the documentation[1] for NPN_GetURL that says
this:
The plug-in developer cannot influence the way that the browser handles
NPN_GetURL(). It is typically asynchronous but this is not guaranteed. 

Wouldn't that mean that the non-blocking nature is not guaranteed? Or am
I misunderstanding it?
