* <code>[firebug-p1]</code> - Bad crashes and security issues, blockers, major features
I feel that if we are targeting this to web developers, the errors in chrome won't be an issue since those are not displayed by default.  However, if we expand the target group to Extension Developers, this will be a serious issue.  There are easily over 50 strict warnings with startup alone, so it will be next to impossible for extension authors to find their own strict warnings.
