It would be nice to be able to detect if a user is signed into Pocket.

This would allow us to serve appropriate messaging for web CTA's which activate the Pocket panel.

MattN - could you give us an estimate on difficulty? Is this something that could be possible for FF39 or FF40?

I have no idea since I didn't work on Pocket.

I see pktApi.isUserLoggedIn() but I don't know if that's initialized correctly on startup or not.

Ha, okay thanks. I'll let dolske route me to the correct person.

That API should work. But more important to have a UITour test for this, since I'd expect that to easily break if someone renames it without thinking about UITour.

btw. This should be added to the getConfiguration API instead of a custom method.
