+ * This function provides a simple assertion function for JavaScript.
+ * If the condition is true, this function will do nothing.  If the
+ * condition is false, then the message will be printed to the console
+ * and an alert will appear showing a stack trace, so that the (alpha
+ * or nightly) user can file a bug containing it.  For future enhancements,
+ * see bugs 330077 and 330078.
+ *
+ * To suppress the dialogs, you can run with the environment variable
+ * XUL_ASSERT_PROMPT set to 0 (if unset, this defaults to 1).
+ *
+ * @param condition represents the condition that we're asserting to be
+ *                  true when we call this function--should be
+ *                  something that can be evaluated as a boolean.
+ * @param message   a string to be displayed upon failure of the assertion
