Compatible by default

  • As majority of add-ons work from one version to the next without the need for developer maintenance, Firefox will mark addons compatible with new versions of Firefox by default, except for the following:
    • All binary add-ons
    • All strict incompatible add-ons
    • All blacklisted add-ons
  • The Feature is planned for Firefox 10. Implementation has started on Firefox 10

The feature can be enabled by setting the "extensions.strictCompatibility" preference to false in about:config.
