That's the plan: PDFium is an open-source PDF reader.

Same argument why Opera chose to base their browser on Blink. PDFium is 100% dependent on Google. I do not think it's a clever move to go down into this dependency.

Sure web > pdf > flash in terms of mozilla's focus, but I fear pdf will be part of the web for a long time to come.
