also approving for aurora (27) uplift since we'll want to cover the bases there, assuming you can land this there as-is.

The issue still reproduces on Fx 26 beta 7 (20131122094025), latest Aurora (20131125004001) and latest Nightly (20131124104839) when Firefox OS 1.2 Simulator is used - the apps are not stopped.

With Firefox OS 1.3 Simulator and an unagi device with 1.3.0.0-prerelease the issue doesn't reproduce on latest Firefox versions, but today I couldn't reproduced it also on the Nighlty builds from October (when the bug was filled). I have tried with default, hosted and packaged apps.

I remember noticing this issue on device in October and email Paul Rouget about it, he told me when it was fixed and I confirmed it was fixed. I don't understand why now the original issue is not reproducible on those builds.
Alexandre, do you have any suggestions? Thank you

Simulator 1.2 builds are based on a gecko version of the 28th, so it doesn't contains the patch that landed on 6th of Nomvember.
I'll spawn new xpi right now.

Verified as fixed on Fx 26 beta 8 (20131125215016), latest Aurora and latest Nightly on Win 7 64-bit, Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit and Mac OS X 10.8.5.

However, on an unagi device with Fx Os 1.2.0.0-prerelease, the issue still occurs, the apps aren't stopped, no matter what OS or Fx versions are used.

The issue described in comment 12 is no longer reproducible. Removing the verifyme keyword.
