Details

Permissions have been implemented for WebExtensions that prompt a user when the add-on is installed:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebExtensions/Permissions

Sideloaded add-ons can be installed into Firefox and they are then allowed to be enabled or disabled. You can sideload an add-on and then go to the gcli and enable it and you won't see the permissions prompt.

I don't consider this a blocker.
