	* [[User:mh166\|mh166]]: After updating (or after installing) an extension it should not be necassary to restart Firefox. It's really anoying if you got dozens of sites opened and have to restart for updates taking change. I'm software developper of my own, too. And I think there should be possibilities for updating without restarting (haven't worked with plugin(systems) yet, but will do). So: why is it necessary atm?		* [[User:mh166\|mh166]]: After updating (or after installing) an extension it should not be necassary to restart Firefox.
