Doesn't really sound like a "solution" to me (well except than taking
it as a trigger to finally move away from crappy FF).

It seems to have become fashion nowadays for *zilla to completely break
user setups every few versions... first breakage of thousands of
"legacy" add-ons... and now they even break their webext addon and the
only solution is re-creating a profile directory for which these is no
proper migration procedure and where most data is stored in some binary
format?!


Cheers,
Chris.
