[add-art dev] splash screen // greasemonkey "library"

[Steve Lambert]

I don't think writing has been our problem, it's just getting all the  
javascript right in versionsplash.js.  But yeah, I think we are  
successfully writing to about:config without much trouble.  Matt you  
agree?

I'd love to get this working reliably by thursday for the new show so  
we can "talk" to our users.

Steve
