/* The nsINetModuleMgr singleton service allows external module to register
 * themselves with the networking library to receive events they want to
 * receive.
 *
 * An external module that is interested in being notified when a particular 
 * networking level event occurs would register with this service, and 
 * implement the appropriate interface(s) that correspond to the events they
 * want to receive. These interfaces are defined by networking internal
 * components (for example, http would define a notification interface that
 * the external cookies module would implement).
