Hmm, is the Behavior any different compared to directly going to http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/ and previewing a Personas?

I don't think so, no?

In the about:home, it is annoying.

If I open  http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/
It is no problem flickering browser when mouseover personas banner, because it is intentional to install persona.
