jbalogh!

random thought for some other time: if logging out was ajaxy like logging in we wouldn't have this problem.

When I log out of the AOM it redirects to the AMO homepage, like always. The AOM apparently has some logic to detect this and loads a placeholder. Maybe because it's detecting that we left the services domain?

Was this on prod? Either way, my patch for logins did not touch logout at all.

This is in -dev and it is consistently reproducible.

The AOM must have code that does the right thing for the prod disco pane; not surprisingly, it doesn't work against -dev.

This is not a problem in the production environment.
