When trying to install an extension, in this case ChatZilla, I get the following notification: "Software installation is currently disabled. Click Edit Options... to enable it and try again.". I added the site to the Exceptions list and even disabled the "Warn me when..." option but the notification just keeps appearing not allowing me to install the extension.

Reproducible: Always
