Q: 

Is it possible to use Google Gears inside of another Firefox extension?

Basically, i want to implement Offline/Online XUL application with ability to upload data to server.

Yes, i know there is Mozilla Storage API, but it looks like it is much more easier with Gears to have local database and to upload local changes to server using WorkerPool.

Without Gears, i have no ideas how to upload local changes to remote server.

Any thoughts, friends?

Thanks in advance for any help.
