If so, do you have an alternate suggestion on how > to pass back this info? Hm, so adding the info is not a problem. However the client is expecting "successful" that is either True or False. So this mechanism will not work with the existing client, sorry for that. We could add a new mechanism via the statusbar, webkit supports a callback on statusbar changes. Or alternatively "console-message" that is called when "A JavaScript console message was created.". This time we need to build-in a version so that the client can simply ignore message versions its does not understand :) Let me know which one you pick so that I start testing, time is up for natty unfortunately, we are behind feature/UI freeze.
