Add-on compatibility is one of the things we're looking at very closely,

the solutions Firefox is using will work as well for us as they will for 
Firefox, but we are aware of the problem, and thinking about what we can 
do to fix it.

If your suggestion is Thunderbird-related, please feel free to also 
email me directly.
