and
The default Add-ons Manager view will be in a two-panel basic hierarchy view within the content area of the browser.  Add-on categories, search, past searches, and recommended add-ons will be in the left panel, and expanded view will be on the right.  This increasingly common format is a familiar layout in operating systems and applications, and follows a larger planned design plan for Firefox's auxiliary controls.

For viewing installed add-ons, the Detail View in the right panel will either show the contents of a category or an individual add-on, depending on which is selected.  Viewing the contents of a category will show a summary view of the add-ons, with basic information and the ability to disable or remove an add-on.  This gives the user the ability to quickly browse the contents of a category with more information than the list in the left panel provides.  The information shown will be similar to what's in the current add-ons manager, but will allow for sorting by categories such as size and date added.

When the user selects an individual add-on, the right panel displays the add-on's information, options, preferences, and the ability to contribute to its developers.
