I like this BUT addons need to catch up and for many it's impossible due to such frequent changes.


99% of the add-ons that are hosted on http://addons.mozilla.org are compatible and had been automatically updated to be compatible. Can you list which ones you use that are not?


Earlier, I read a pretty interesting mozilla post about the problem with non-AMO addons.

> it was quite eye-opening when I learned that only 25% of the 600 million add-ons in use every day in Firefox 4 and later are active on AMO.

My most important one, roboform is coming as 'will be disabled.'


This may be because roboform proper isn't hosted on addons.mozilla.org, so they can't vouch for it or bump the version for you. The Roboform Lite that is on addons.mozilla.org is properly marked.
