Wait, why are you changing `this` to be the data? `this` should be the options object to which the data and onClick are attached.

Erm, right, sorry, I missed that. Thus this still needs to |call| the callback to set `this` appropriately.

Maybe I'm missing something, but change of not using |call| was intentional since that's a way `EventEmitter` works.

How is changing the meaning of `this` inside onClick related to EventEmitter? Why would `this` be anything other than the object on which I've defined onClick? The documentation explicitly mentions what arguments onClick will be passed and this.data.
Sorry Drew it seems that I misunderstood what switching to `EventEmitter` model meant. My understanding was that we'll be sticking to original interface they way it is implemented in browser, nodejs, etc.. But it seems we're not and in that case no change required at all. If you want to know why IMO binding this is wrong: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598983#c3 Now I see that the example in the docs indeed mentions this.data

The Add-on SDK is no longer a Mozilla Labs experiment and has become a big enough project to warrant its own Bugzilla product, so the "Add-on SDK" product has been created for it, and I am moving its bugs to that product. To filter bugmail related to this change, filter on the word "looptid".
