User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0

Steps to reproduce:

Tested in Nightly 69 (apparently happens in 68 as well)

Vanilla profile. Change to dark theme. Add the hidden pref extensions.enabledScopes as value 1. Close browser. Reopen browser.

Actual results:

The theme has been reverted to default? Open customize, go to the bottom bar and select the theme combobox - all the themes are missing, including the built in default, light and dark ones.

Expected results:

System addons and system themes (xpis) should be treated differently to Web Extensions.

I ni'ed Mike Kaply since he knows more about scopes than I do [1] https://mike.kaply.com/2012/02/21/understanding-add-on-scopes/

If you don't want this to happen, set it to 5, not 1.

Scopes is not something we expect users to change, so changing it is at your own risk.

I'm going to mark this as invalid.

Thanks. 5 is fine. I was just checking that it wasn't a regression since it still worked in 67.
