;Description
:Instead of a page that has a browser element, change the update snippet format to include references to resources (images, text) which will be assembled in a XUL dialog on the client side.
 
= Goals / Use Cases =
* Removing the browser element will remove the requirement to verify the size of the billboard content per locale.
* Make the ui look more like it is part of the application.
 
= Non Goals =
* major redesign of the major update offer screen
* adding controls/fields to ask users why they are declining an update
 
= Design =
The updater window should look like this-ish:
 
http://people.mozilla.org/~beltzner/images/newupdater.png
 
with:
 
* a background image (stored as a data URI in the update snippet)
* a logo image (stored as a data URI in the update snippet)
* large header text (stored as text data in the update snippet)
* bold subheader text (stored as text data in the update snippet)
* description text (stored as text data in the update snippet)
 
= Bugs =
* [http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480178 Bug 480178] - Rebuild Software Update without browser element
* [http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475671 Bug 475671] - Separate the billboard url from detailsURL in the update xml
