unsigned extensions (again)

[patrickjdempsey]

The signing process is automatic but there are manual human code reviews and automated code reviews for EVERYTHING uploaded to AMO.

Aside from Conduit, AMO has for many years hosted many extensions of questionable functionality and Mozilla requires them to have privacy statements and opt out interfaces. There has been no policy change here TMK.

some extensions on AMO that say they are signed but Firefox still thinks they are not after a restart. HTML Validator is one:

That's screwed up, now isn't it!
Is there a bug on that?
Perhaps, Bug 1197206 - Validator misses innerHTML assigning?

I dunno. I made a new one; although, I don't expect much traction with it. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1199376

I have two, signed, AMO hosted, extensions that FX says aren't verified. This is going to be a big mess down the road!

It won't be such a big deal to me, when FX kills CTR, I'll be moving on to SM.

Well I know CTR (at least beta versions) show as signed in both 40.0.3 and latest 41beta. At least no warning is shown.

That's not what I meant. Aris mentioned that future changes in FX may make CTR obsolete.

"If CTR won't be able to use css tweaks/hacks or to modify, move, create or remove ui elements (like buttons, toolbars, menuitems, colors etc.) anymore, it will most likely be discontinued along with many many other add-ons on AMO."

Ahhh.. well, I do have a separate beta installation so I'll know when things truly crap out for me. Right now, FF with a clean profile is like alien to me and almost unusable LOL.
