Key new features:
- Tighter Talkback integration. You now no longer need to open talkback at all. Recent incidents are listed directly on the main menu. Older incidents can be viewed in a sidebar, you might be surprised at how many there are on your computer!
- NSPR log analyser. NTT now has a simple GUI that provides the same functionality as the leak-guage scripts. You are still required to generate the nspr.log file in the same way but once generated you can load it in firefox quickly and easily copy the results to the clipboard.
- Copy a list of installed extensions to the clipboard.
- Allows the disabling of the compatibility check that applications run when new versions have been installed and would normally disable extensions that you have already marked compatible.
- Many fixes to provide most of the same features for thunderbird. The talkback sidebar probably won't be coming to thunderbird in the near future though.
- Finally you can install incompatible extensions, look for the "Install Extension or Theme" option in the menu.
One minor gotcha with this release, the menu items have moved from the help menu to the "Nightly Tester Tools" menu on the tools menu. This is because there are now too many options and the help menu was a bit of a poor place UI wise.
Also I'm planning on actually having some documentation together for the full release of 0.8 but right now you're somewhat on your own.

This is pretty close to being finished now, assuming I come across nothing major in the next week I will be passing this onto some guys to get localisations updated and then released.
