When there are signed mar checks across all major platforms (bug 903126) we should disable via preference the certificate attribute checks and the certificate built-in check. I've discussed this with dveditz and he is ok with this.
Depends on: 903126
We already have signed mar checks on Windows so I filed bug 928489 to get the checks removed only on Windows and this bug will be for the remaining platforms after bug 903126 is fixed.
OS: Windows 7 → Mac OS X
Summary: Disabled certificate checks for the update xml check → Disabled certificate checks on platforms other than Windows for the update xml check
Bug 928489 is the new bug for Windows only
No longer blocks: 928489

Yep looks like we default to true: http://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/mozapps/update/nsUpdateService.js#l3682 Also could you include metro.js with the same change?
Already done

It's unlikely that I will get to work on this in the next two weeks, so unassigning myself for now.
