"Recommended Extensions" on addons.mozilla.org still get the full human-reviewed treatment.

And those they don't recommend are clearly noted as unverified and possibly containing malware. It's almost like they WANT to protect users....
Yeah it's kinda a big dichotomy though... they only review very few extensions after doing their automated testing on them. my extension is marked as unverified and there doesn't seem to be a way to change that other than getting some unknown critical mass of users where they are interested in doing a manual review. oh well... not a big deal I guess and the extension is more for my own usefulness.
