553658 - Disabled Addons in Features view still aren't exclusively obvious they are disabled

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 590350

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

Attachment: Disabled Addons View screenshot

Although the "disabled" text is present, Disabled extensions is hardly recognizable as disabled. I suggest graying it out even more, or changing the color of the box, or bolding it differently, etc...

See screenshot

Repro:
1) install addons branch build: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.3a4pre) Gecko/20100319 Minefield/3.7a4pre
2) open addons manager
3) install 2 or more addons to the pane, disable a few, enable a few
4) Verify the quick visual view of the status of the addons don't scream which ones are disabled.  I know the "(disabled)" label is listed next to the title, but it would still be better if they were much more distinguishable with color, text, order, lighter shade of gray etc..

Expected:
- faily obvious visual way to determine addons are disabled state

Actual:
- still not so obvious as they kinda look the same.

Adding mockup showing intended visual appearance of disabled (as well as blocked, incompatible, etc) add-ons
