* Handles arguments on the command line of an XUL application.

*
* By convention, handler with ordinary priority should begin with "m".
*
* Example:
* Category Entry Value
* command-line-handler b-jsdebug @mozilla.org/venkman/clh;1
* command-line-handler c-extensions @mozilla.org/extension-manager/clh;1
* command-line-handler m-edit @mozilla.org/composer/clh;1

*
* @status UNDER_REVIEW This interface is intended to be frozen, but it isn't
* frozen yet. Be careful!
* @note What do we do about localizing helpInfo? Do we make each handler do it,
* or provide a generic solution of some sort? Don't freeze this interface
* without thinking about this!
