Filing this as a bug so it doesn't get forgotten -- it really slows down development because it's so hard to find the real bugs in the compiler messages. OutputText and OutputHTML give lots of warnings -- here they all are: ../../dist/include/nsITextEditor.h:288: warning: `nsITextEditor::OutputText(nsIOutputStream *, nsString *)' was hidden

Greg, this is because of your overloading in the editor interfaces. You should also remove those default params (charset string) from the interfaces.

I plan to change all the API's so this should go away in M7.

I fixed this; they no longer spew the warnings.

Marking verified since it's a code-level thing.
