Based on bug 1325724 comment 1, there should be another fallback that check the "browser.formautofill.enabled" pref is set or not, and add an observer to reg/unreg the factory when flag is changed.

Bug 1330567 - Part 1: Fallback to form history if form autofill pref is disabled,

Hi Matt,
It's a quick patch about adding the checking the pref at parent and content. I also remove the event and message listener while pref off, although I think they should be harmless.

Sorry to jump in.

We should still need to handle "DOMContentLoaded" when pref is off as it won't be triggered again.

Just a thought. Since we'll also need to toggle ProfileAutocomplete's registration by listening to "ProfileChanged" message from Parent (or something like that), is it possible to determine whether to register or unregister in parent and send one single message to content to avoid duplicate conditions?

This should have tests.

(Diff revision 1)

> +        mm.removeMessageListener("FormAutofill:PopulateFieldValues", this);

It's usually preferred to pass `this` instead of a method so that we don't have a nested observer function. You then move the logic to an `observe` method with the following signature:
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/6a23526fe5168087d7e4132c0705aefcaed5f571/xpcom/ds/nsIObserver.idl#33

You will need to add the following property to the object:
`QueryInterface: XPCOMUtils.generateQI([Ci.nsIObserver])`

Eventually we would then change the the addObserver to observe browser.formautofill.*

::: browser/extensions/formautofill/FormAutofillParent.jsm:80
(Diff revision 1)
>     *
>     * @param   {string} message.name The name of the message.
>     * @param   {object} message.data The data of the message.
>     * @param   {nsIFrameMessageManager} message.target Caller's message manager.
>     */
>    receiveMessage: function({name, data, target}) {

Note that due to my slow reviews you will need to rebase on eslint changes. Sorry :(

I would avoid the nesting of the function inside the method here too by using `this`. observer => `this.toggleListener()`

Hmm… I think at least for now it would be okay to require a reload after changing the pref.

Good idea. Using a message from the parent makes sense to me.

Bug 1330567 - Part 1: Fallback to form history if form autofill pref is disabled,

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/104498/#review111888

::: browser/extensions/formautofill/FormAutofillParent.jsm:53
(Diff revision 3)
> +    let mm = Cc["@mozilla.org/globalmessagemanager;1"]
> +           .getService(Ci.nsIMessageListenerManager);

I think this is available as Services.…

::: browser/extensions/formautofill/FormAutofillParent.jsm:74
(Diff revision 3)
> +        target.messageManager.sendAsyncMessage("FormAutofill:enabledStatus",
> +                                               this.isEnabledStatus());

I think it would be good to cache the enabled state in whatever object has these observers for prefs and profile storage so we can always just respond with that cached state instead of doing work to check the prefs/storage to reply.

This would also make it easy to unit test because you can set a pref and check the current state. You can also test that the broadcast works.

::: browser/extensions/formautofill/FormAutofillParent.jsm:109
(Diff revision 3)

> +  statusHandler: function(enabled) {

Nit: I think `onStatusChanged` may be a clearer name.

I would also just fold the StatusObserver into FormAutofillParent.

I'm worried about this being async because a field may become focused before the response is received and then that field won't get profile autocomplete. IIRC there is an API to send initialization data to new frame scripts.

Bug 1330567 - Part 2: Add xpcshell test for the pref fallback,

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/111180/#review112714

::: browser/extensions/formautofill/test/unit/test_enabledStatus.js:5
(Diff revision 1)
> +/*
> + * Test for status handling in Form Autofill Parent.
> + */
> +
> +/* global FormAutofillParent, sinon */

I think you can move this definition of the sinon global to head.js and the mozilla/import-headjs-globals.js rule will find it in the test scope.

I also think the FormAutofillParent global should automatically be found from the import.

::: browser/extensions/formautofill/test/unit/test_enabledStatus.js:52
(Diff revision 1)
> +  Services.prefs.setBoolPref("browser.formautofill.enabled", false);
> +  do_check_eq(formAutofillParent._getStatus(), false);
> +
> +  Services.prefs.clearUserPref("browser.formautofill.enabled");

If code above this throws then the pref will have the wrong value for subsequent tests.
If you instead use SpecialPowers.pushPrefEnv(…) then it will cleanup for you at the end (in mochitest). In xpcshell you can run `SpecialPowers.flushPrefEnv()` in head.js so it cleans up for all xpcshell tests.

We can change this to use `Services.cpmm.initialProcessData` after the planned refactoring of process vs. frame lifetime.

I guess SpecialPowers isn't generally available in xpcshell but some indexedDB tests copied some stuff so do_register_cleanup is fine.
