16:23 (mconley) Standard8: so, gAppUpdater.update.detailsURL - when would that be undefined?
16:23 (mconley) Standard8: not sure i'm a big fan of the idea of having a Learn More... with the possibility that it doesn't take the user anywhere on clicking

16:26 wsm has left IRC (Ping timeout)
16:28 (mconley) Standard8: everything else looks OK - but that's the only thing that kinda concerns me about this patch
