Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

Please add the possibility to provide links to similar add-ons on AMO, at least for add-ons not compatible with latest release (maybe also for all add-ons so that user can find another one if the selected one didn't satisfied him). These fields shouldn't be editable by the developer, if he stops developing and maintaining his extension, he can commend an extension in the description / developer notes. Three to five links to similar extensions would be preferable, the criteria for choosing them should be download count, rating and functionality compared to the extension provided on this page.

Reproducible: Always

This bug isn't about involving the developer(s).
