Steps to reproduce:
I've created a (Web) Extension to be used with FF. To this end, I've created a manifest.json with the content
```
{
"manifest_version": 2,
"name": "Borderify",
"version": "1.0",
"default_locale": "en",
"applications": {
"gecko": {
"id": "borderify@mozilla.org"
}
},
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["*://*.mozilla.org/*"],
"js": ["borderify.js"]
}
]
}
```
(Almost literally copied from the examples.)
Actual results:
Upon loading the extension, the Browser Console says
```
1455654993640 addons.webextension.<unknown> ERROR Loading extension 'null': Reading manifest: Missing required `applications.gecko.id` property
```
This is with FF Nightly 47.0a1 (2016-01-26).
Full console log:
```

I can no longer reproduce the problem. I'll reopen if the error occurs again.
