This would preferably be done by clicking on the toolbar that says "To protect your computer, FireFox prevented ..blah blah" and selecting "Allow [extension file.xpi] to install". Just like it is possible to allow a popup to show, without allowing the _entire_ site to show popups. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to the URL 2. Click on the toolbar 3. Actual Results: Nothing Expected Results: Show a menu (or some other GUI) that allows me to install the extension without having to grant the entire site permission to install any extension, always.
