Details
Steps to reproduce: 1. Go to http://mixedpuppy.github.io/socialapi-demo/ and install the provider using the "Activate the Demo Provider" button. 2. Open the add-on manager and select the "Services" section. 3. Click on the "Remove" button. The message "Demo Social Provider has been removed." appears. 4. Select the http://mixedpuppy.github.io/socialapi-demo/ tab again, install the provider again. 5. Return to the add-on manager tab. There's now a "Demo Social Service 1.0" item above the "Demo Social Provider has been removed." line. 6. Selects the "Extensions" section. Expected result: no change to the list of social providers. Actual result: the social provider is uninstalled. This may be a side effect of bug 862314. Tested with: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:23.0) Gecko/20130415 Firefox/23.0

Parts #4 and #5 are bug 862314. The affect of the actual uninstall happening when you switch to a different tab (inside about:addons) or closing about:addons is by design, to allow users to "undo" a removal. Fixing bug 862314 will fix the weirdness you encountered due to that bug.
