Comment:

 This only happen when the web server is not configured to recognize .xo
 files mime. Until the following mozilla fix land, I don't think we should
 spend time to track down/fix client side extension recognition:

 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394647

 It would only work with old (or non-default configured) web servers.

 I suggest to postpone it to Update.2 and document how to configure web
 servers to recognize .xo (it's really simple).
