Getting a Firefox Tab window handle using the DOM?

[Yotam]

I have the gBrowser.selectedTab and I'm trying to get the window
handle (MS windows)
Is it possible to retrieve the window handle?

It is possible with some native code but at some point in the future it will
not be as tabs will no longer have native HWNDs. For now, all you need is
the nsIDocShell associated with the tab (gBrowser.selectedTab.docShell I
believe). Once you have that, in native code you can do something like this:
