The code used to initialize the message themes and emoticons tabs requests twice the list of addons from the add-on manager. This operation is slow, the code should probably do it only once for the 2 tabs.

I moved the code loading the extension list to the general javascript file for this theme (maybe move it to an even more general place if it is necessary elsewhere?).

messagestle.js and smileys.js are requesting it from there now, getting a cached copy of the list.

Gets extension list once in theme.js, caches for later use

I would have probably fetched the list in the init method in themes.js, and added a parameter in each of the buildThemeList functions. This would have saved keeping the list loaded in memory until the preference window is closed.

It's a very minor detail, and your approach is good to. This bug isn't worth discussing details forever, so I'll just take your patch :).

A few coding style nits:
 - space before and after the test in the if statement: if (test) {
 - space before { in function() {
 - I also fixed the indentation of the .getService and .getItemList lines (and wrapped after the = in the first line of the assignment, so as to reduce the length of the following lines which were well over 80 columns).
