I agree with the first reader comment over at mozillalinks -- it feels like the feature should really live as an extension. The average user isn't going to know or care about this, and it just increases the size of the codebase. Firefox certainly doesn't need to get any heavier out-of-the-box.

Same for me. I dont mind at all a Goodies pulldown menu that advertises new or popular extensions, which might be good for the average user, but I dont like having some intern's project foisted on me it got "oohs" at the office.

I didn't know that was a concern, thanks for bringing it to my attention.
