The Add-Ons manager cannot be opened after using tabcandy

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Delete all tab views
2. Create a new one
3. Open a tab
4. Try to open the add-ons manager
Actual Results:  
The add-ons manager can't be opened

It's not only for the Add-ons Manager but also for File | New Tab. Seems like all actions which will create a new tab directly fail.

Good find! While I think this is an important bug to quash, I don't think it is necessary for b4.
