> As for running your unsigned extension, there will be six versions of Firefox available (stable, unbranded stable, beta, unbranded beta, dev edition and nightly). Of these six, only two will force addon signing. All the others are a tweak away.

Okay, I want a branded Firefox. I don't want to run a dev edition or nightly. My choices are stable or beta. I probably don't even want beta, but it doesn't really matter. So, I don't really have a choice here.

I can see why signed extensions are a good thing, but removing the option from about:config is unnecessary.
