Comment(by mikeperry):

 There's no example code in Torbutton for this, sadly. We disable plugins
 from Torbutton, not addons. However, it does look like APIs exist for
 this. You can register "changes" to take effect upon Thunderbird restart
 via the AddonManager.addStartupChange() call. See
 https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Addons/Add-
 on_Manager/AddonManager#addStartupChange%28%29 and
 https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Addons/Add-
 on_Manager/AddonManager#Startup_change_types

 You probably can then even cause a force-restart of Thunderbird to make
 the changes take effect, though I'm not sure of the API for that off-hand.
