Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

Daily 20140919 on Windows 8.1
Works as expected in Thunderbird 31.1.1

Opening the add-ons manager and there the 'Get Add-ons' pane has some empty areas.

(still see this)
Is something supposed to appear there?

I see this since the move to ATN. There was an area with single featured extensions and this functionality seems to be gone. Maybe with the move to ATN this needs a overhaul what should be shown there.

The blank area has been removed, among other things mentioned in https://github.com/thundernest/addons-server/issues/92

Note that this discovery pane will be redesigned at some point in the next year, so these minor tuneups are only intended to be temporary.
