Details

basePath is sometimes used to check if an app is a preinstalled app or not, we shouldn't need that after bug 910465.

In the installer component that I'm going to write for bug 910473 we could introduce a getInstallPath function that would replace the basePath property and would allow different runtimes to have packages in different places.

This shouldn't pose performance issues because in AppProtocolHandler.js we would cache the getInstallPath return value.
