Other Issues
- 64-bit as supported platform for Windows, OSX and Linux
- Linux builds have existed for a while, but unsupported
- Josh has done some work on 64 bit OSX builds
- No work to date on 64 bit for Windows
- Can we ship 64-bit Linux for alpha 1?
- are regressions from setCapture (on sites feature-detecting it) a problem?
- out-of-process-plugins enabled or not?
- watch to see how enabling it on m-c goes?
