=== Status Button ===
This is a replacement for the existing toolbar button.  It is designed
to allow users to see more than one provider at a time.  You could have
Mixi and Twitter both installed, and see a button for both, as well as
receiving notifications from both.  The new button is limited to one
icon and one panel attached to the icon.  The new button is defined by
an entry in the manifest called "statusURL".
The existing toolbar button will continue to work as long as you do not
specify "statusURL" in your manifest, however we will deprecate the
existing button at some time in the future.  If you define "statusURL"
the existing button will also continue to work until the new features
are turned on, then users will be switched to the new button.
=== Social Bookmarks ===
The existing SocialMarks functionality is being replaced by a new Social
Bookmark button.  As with the Status Button, this allows for more than
one provider to have a Social Bookmark button in the toolbar.  You are
not currently using this feature so it does not affect you.  If you are
interested in this, I can get you details, but I will be writing the
documentation on MDN for it next week.
=== Notifications ===
As I mentioned above with the Status Button, users will be able to
receive notifications from more than one provider at a time.  This
change also means that your worker script will always be running in
Firefox, you will no longer need to be the "selected" provider.
