I wish they’d do away with the completely useless Continue
prompt after an extension update has taken place in Firefox.
It’s good to prompt me before updating (in case I want to skip it), and obviously I’d like to be notified in case installing the update fails for some reason, but what is the purpose of prompting me to “continue starting Firefox, something which I’ve already requested, and for which there’s no longer anything requiring my intervention”? It’s just plain stupid.
Sadly, I don’t see this change in Firefox 3’s changelog.

Agreed. When installing OS X Leopard on my work laptop, I loved the fact I could press install and the next time I came back to my computer, everything was ready. This is how it _should_ be. :)
This is [Bug 397493], fwiw.
Thanks for the link, Jesse. I’m glad to see the issue has been raised where it should be!
Edit: I changed your comment to include a link text, because the URL was replaced by three dots (with my settings/plugins anyway) which was a bit confusing.
