[ANN] Patch Stack for App Browser 2.5.1 and 2.6

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Devin,

No I did not sent this to Bugzilla.
As I do each time I provide the answer too, I sent a copy to support  
and to Mark Waddingham.
May be it's not the right way.
What's your opinion?

Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
