Thanks for all your answers :-) 
 
Another idea: what about browser-plugins? 
 
In general it might be a bad idea, to force users to install a plugin  
before they can see a particular page - what if everybody would do that?  
But in my current project the users would be happy, if they could extend  
the browser capabilities as desired, by installing a plugin. 
 
Concrete question: what's the task of a plugin, what makes the browser  
activate it? Is a plugin related to a special object type, or what else?
