  The only thing that I'd think would make it different would be it has
to handle all the callback methods added by ExternalInterface. Although
maybe those should just live in movie_root. Basically
ExternalInterface::addCallback() adds a method to the list, although the
browser may issue a GetVariable() request whether any methods are
installed or not. So movie_root needs to check for network input
whenever it does an advance.

  I'll be honest, it's a bit of a pain in the @#%$ to keep track of how
classes get bound into Gnash as it's changed heavily since I last added
a class.
