Add-ons Manager Redesign

This redesign will substantially improve the basic functionality of the a add-ons manager, such as installation and configuration of add-ons, as well as incorporate additional features and functionality, such as use of Personas and Jetpacks. The design will also remove parts of the manager that interrupt and distract user tasks.

Discovery Pane

As a part of this redesign project the Discovery Pane has its own testplan.
