           Summary: [BlackBerry] Allow plugins to be disabled by shared
                    library filename
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit BlackBerry
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mfeil at rim.com


We need a mechanism to allow plugins to be disabled by specifying their shared library filenames, for example "libflashplayer.so". Once disabled, a plugin's shared library should never be loaded. This will save memory at runtime. Other mechanisms based on mime type, etc, require loading of the shared library just to determine its supported mime type(s).

This bug covers the Source/WebCore and Source/WebKit changes for this fix. There are corresponding changes in the libwebview and browser repositories, which are covered by PR201152.
