Comment(by mikeperry):
I have a few questions/comments:
1. Shouldn't we place the Torbutton preferences in extension-overrides.js
too? Is there a reason why we didn't? We can probably actually just
eliminate most of these entirely, though. I can work on that bit in
Torbutton.
2. If users change their addon preferences (NoScript for example), will
those values take precedence over extension-overrides.js? Ie will prefs.js
extension prefs override extension-overrides.js? I think we want this to
be the case.
3. Can we entirely remove the prefs.js from the distribution? A key goal
here is not overwriting user preferences during updates.
4. There may be some more prefHasUserValue checks in Torbutton. I'll get
to those soon.
