Details

The compartment-per-add-on changes are breaking some add-ons which assume that the preference service has already been QueryInterfaced to `nsIPrefService` in browser.xul compartments. This warning needs to be emitted when `getBranch` is called on an object which has been QueryInterfaced to `nsIPrefBranch` but not to `nsIPrefService`. A string test will not work here.
