How does Firebug get content from an IFrame?

I am very familiar with cross-origin restrictions when it comes to browsers, but what I don't get is how Firebug can get and render HTML from an iframe with this restriction in place. Do plugins have access to this, which allows you to get around this?

Plugins have access to quite a bit. They are not considered crossover, they are considered part of your browser.
