After a very painful analysis, it seems this first idea was completely
wrong. We now suspect the parameters that should be transmitted from one
chrome window to another are dropped because of either a bug in
gtkmozembed itself or in the permissions manager (which is an additional
layer in Gecko to separate the UI from the content, made necessary as
the Mozilla developers made a big fuzz about using the same toolkit for
both, without understanding even now that it is a dead end).

I’m afraid that anyone willing to fix this needs to prepare for long,
sleepless nights and losing SAN points while looking at the code.
