805962 - Persona popup loaded addon update notification after logging in

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core Graveyard :: Identity, defect)

Description

[Kartikaya Gupta (email:[e-mail])]

STR (this is probably not reproducible unless it's just after you update your browser and firebug gets updated too):

1. Go to metrics.mozilla.org
2. Click on the persona log in link
3. Enter username/password in the persona login popup window and log in

Expected results:
Persona log-in window disappears and I'm logged in to metrics.mozilla.org

Actual results:
I'm logged in to metrics.mozilla.org, but the persona log-in window now shows https://getfirebug.com/firstrun#Firebug%201.10.5

I usually see that page at some point after I update my desktop Firefox install and get a new version of Firebut, but it seems odd that the page would load into the persona log-in window.

Thanks Kartikaya!

Marking won't fix, because: 

1) The Persona shim dialog will never work after a browser restart
2) this is a low level Firefox restart bug
3) Eventually we'll have a native Persona, which will fix this as a side-effect of being native.
