/**
* nsIWindowWatcher is the keeper of Gecko/DOM Windows. It maintains
* a list of open top-level windows, and allows some operations on them.
* Usage notes:
* This component has an |activeWindow| property. Clients may expect
* this property to be always current, so to properly integrate this component
* the application will need to keep it current by setting the property
* as the active window changes.
* This component should not keep a (XPCOM) reference to any windows;
* the implementation will claim no ownership. Windows must notify
* this component when they are created or destroyed, so only a weak
* reference is kept. Note that there is no interface for such notifications
* (not a public one, anyway). This is taken care of both in Mozilla and
* by common embedding code. Embedding clients need do nothing special
* about that requirement.
* This component must be initialized at application startup by calling
* setWindowCreator.
*
* @status FROZEN
