[Galene] Re: Blur background

Juliusz,

Yes, loading 3rdparty libraries is conceptually insecure. I initially
tried to download the Javascript libraries and wasm modules to serve
them via Galene, but failed because they refer to each other via full
URL instead of relative paths when you load them. I also tried to
download their source code and build them myself, but my head exploded
when I saw the kind of build system those libraries have. So I
resorted to this hack for my own purposes, knowing full well that it
would not be merged.

Not sure what you mean. How would you do this?
