Details

This is apparently blocking bug 722538, which we have been iterating on for a long time. The problem is that we're sending this:

> <driverVersion></driverVersion>
> <driverVersionComparator></driverVersionComparator>

Both fields are empty in the admin form (see URL). Apparently Firefox handles empty nodes differently than no nodes and the blocklist item doesn't work. We need that empty fields in the form translate to no nodes in the XML.

Bug 639723 is a similar bug that was fixed by changing the DB entry manually, so we should look into this for a short-term solution. This bug shouldn't be closed until we fix the problem on the admin tools, though.
