What was the original intended use case for remote XUL, powerful origins controlled by Mozilla, or enabling developers to build their own powerful origins?

Note that the remote XUL origins are not terribly powerful. They do _not_ allow arbitrary XPCOM access, for instance... They do have more attack surface than normal web pages, of course.
