Javascript scales really poorly, so restricting the application code
to Javascript means that XUL will always be marginalized.  Ruby scales
much, much better, so having a Ruby interpreter replacement for
Javascript would benefit Mozilla nearly as much as being able to write
GUIs in XUL would benefit Ruby.

That said, Python would be a good alternative, but I'd (selfishly)
much rather see Ruby take this role.
