Comment (by mcs):
I agree with this approach (just exempt our own bundled add-ons from the
3rd party signing requirement). There is also a ticket that I cannot find
at the moment that proposes that we should build in Tor Launcher and
Torbutton so they cannot be disabled or removed. Since the changes for
#10280 landed, disabling or removing Torbutton makes it so that
about:addons cannot be opened, which means that users can paint themselves
into a corner (the file toolkit/mozapps/extensions/content/extensions.xul
directly uses entities that are part of Torbutton's brand.dtd file).
