Attached file Minimal test extension
Steps to reproduce:

1. Download attached extension.
2. Go to about:config and set xpinstall.signatures.required to false.
3. Open Add-ons Manager and install the extension from file.
4. Press Ctrl-Shift-J (Cmd-Shift-J on OS X) to open the Browser Console.

Expected results:

No error messages, the extension successfully called tabs.query() for one of its own URLs - as happening in Chrome.

Actual results:

Error message:

> Invalid match pattern: 'moz-extension://ab3bef6f-8307-7f4a-a92f-ffdaef522d41/foo.html'

The code causing this is the following:

  chrome.tabs.query({
    url: chrome.runtime.getURL("foo.html")
  });

This is the same as bug 1271354, the problem is MatchPattern doesn't allow/include the moz-extension scheme.
