Is there any kind of Extension/Add-on for Firefox to support Zeroconf/mDNS/Bonjour?

Basically I would like to use Firefox to resolve local domain names (myHost.local) to local IP addresses on my LAN using mDNS as defined in RFC 6762. This is also known as Zero Configuration Networking and is the technique used by Apple's Bonjour software add-on.

This feature is supported in Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Safari. Why is there no support for Zeroconf/mDNS/Bonjour in Firefox?

Are there any 3rd party add-ons which will work safely to support Zeroconf?

I did a search of the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page.

I found this. Don't know if this is what you want.

Thanks for trying to help. I did not see any add-ons which appear to resolve a .local domain name to it's IP address using mDNS. Please let me know if I'm missing something or if you know of other add-ons/extensions which will perform Zeroconf/mDNS. Thanks.
