Add-ons/Projects/Jazz

I hate giving projects code names, but we couldn't think of a good summary for this project that didn't involve being confused with every other permissions and objects project. So we have Jazz and that seems cool since we have Disco Pane.

Project Jazz

Let's find a way to show users of extensions what the extensions do to their browser after they are installed. This includes, but is not limited to:

• showing a user the permissions granted by a user to the add-on
• allow a user to revoke permissions (both optional and required) from the add-on
• showing a user which command combinations an add-on requests
• allowing a user to change the command combinations an add-on requests
• show what collisions in APIs add-ons might represent
• allowing the user to override or change key functionality such as: search engines, home page, new tab pages
