Step 1. run an app that later calls navigator.mozId.
Step 2. go into settings without closing the app from step 1.
Step 3. log out of FxA.

Expected:
onlogout to fire

An app developer will not know that a user is logged in.

This does not reproduce with the UITests app. Here's what I did:

mozilla-central 2.0 as of ~4pm PST today
gaia origin/v2.0, same time
Flash Flame with dev build

1) Sign into FxA
2) Homescreen -> UITest app -> tab API -> Firefox Accounts MozID item
3) Assertion prints, indicating onlogin() fired.
4) Switch to Settings -> Firefox Accounts. Sign out.
5) Use app switch (press/hold Home button) to return to running UITest app.
6) logout has been printed, indicating that onlogout() fired.
