Maybe I've become corporate since I moved here, but after cleaning
malware (frequently including side-loaded Firefox extensions) off of
numerous relatives' and friends' computers, I am 100% in favor of FF
being able to decide that their brand means "resists side-loading even
if that slightly inconveniences power users like me." Because it's
going to be a big help to my relatives and friends.
