 	It qorks quite well - the common case is it provides a linux
 	npviewer.bin executable which looks like a browser to the
 	(flash) plugin, and a native npwrapper.so which installs as
 	a plugin into the native browser. A pipe between npviewer.bin
 	and npwrapper.so bridges the gap.

 	Its not as performant as a plugin directly in the browser, but
 	as a side effect if the flash plugin crashes... the browser
 	keeps running.
