This is SOAP client support. Firefox doesn't have SOAP server support; integration.js contains a miniature web server and generates a SOAP envelope itself using Firefox XML tools.

I've been toying with the idea of switching to a fuller XML-based API, since we have to drop VBA/Mac anyway, and WinWord and OOo both have XML processing tools accessible from Basic. However, this would need to follow #698, which might need to follow the release of Office 2008 for Mac (unless we can somehow acquire a beta version).
