Holy hell I wish this existed when I wrote addons for Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. Just the idea of IE support with no extra work is awesome - and the idea of having a single codebase is great too. I tried to modularize as many components of my addons as possible to make them all easy to update but it just wasn't perfect. I went as far as building a messaging class to extend for the communication across platforms and boy was that a hack and a half. DEFINITELY trying this out next time I'm building an addon!
