[Adium-devl] Out of process plugins (was: Distant objects)

[Ofri Wolfus]

Thinking about the subject a bit more, maybe we can utilize the  
security framework instead of rolling our own authentication  
mechanism. Adium will require each process trying to connect to it to  
provide an authorization right of the current session user. In order  
to obtain this right the other process will have to use the security  
framework, which will pop the user a password dialog showing them the  
full path to the process.
