TO DO for Performance Improvement:
We are loading every dll in the components directory and instructing
it to auto-register. Could we have a utility that does this similar
to regsvr32. This also takes a lot of time when first initializing
AppRunner. For some reason the initialization code seems to load the
components even after they are auto-registered.

We need this and have to turn off autoregister. But before that we need to work
out the registry problems and decide where it is going to be. The registry stuff
will work out in M7. Moving this to M8.

We have this utility. xpcom/test/regFactory
Once the installer is ready, we will need to use this in the installer.

change component to Install Wizard.
setting target milestone to M10.
reassign to Sean (for win), ccing Samir (for mac), Dan, Cathleen & DP.
DP, I assume this utility exists on Mac too, correct?
The wizard now launches apprunner with a -installer parameter at the end of the
install. If autoregistering is suppose to be happening only with the -installer
flag now, then this bug is fixed for Windows.
If the -installer is not the fix for this bug, someone please provide more
information. I'm leaving this bug open because the Mac is probably not done
yet.

I will take this bug. I need to make:
- -installer do autoreg instead of always
- use buildID and run autoreg only if the buildID changed for release builds
only
- Land relative pathnames in registry
- Ship component registry along with the release
Dp, do you think using a different flag (other than -installer) to run the
autoreg might be useful? I'm thinking of the situation when the user simply
wants to autoreg, not also go through the entire profile migration.
This way the profile migration and the autoreg can be run either independent of
each other or together at the same time (like apprunner.exe -installer -autoreg)
Just a thought.

xpinstall will be able to run autoreg apart from the -installer flag, and
power users will be able to manually call RegFactory.exe (which I'd rename to
regcomp or compreg).
Would blowing away the component registry trigger an AutoReg?

Yeah there are ton of ways to get to autoreg. So I dont think another flag would
be more useful.

We are in home stretch. component.reg can be shipped.
regfactory has been updated to do autoreg if run with no arguments. But release
cant run it because it is a test/ and they dont compile tests. Need to move
regFactory to something like xpcom/registry
