(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Tom Sommer]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040730 Firefox/0.9.1+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040730 Firefox/0.9.1+

I am unable to install software when "Allow websites to install software" is
disabled, but update.mozilla.org is added to whitelist.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Uncheck "Allow web sites to install software" in options dialog
2. Make sure update.mozilla.org is added to whitelist
3. Go to attached URL and click "Install Now"

Actual Results:  
A yellow bar appears telling you that software installation is disabled

Expected Results:  
Since sofware installation is disabled, but update.mozilla.org is added as an
exception to this rule, you should be able to install software from that site.

Tested with clean profile.
