Design
- Persistent indicator with icon to be placed to the left of the site identity box of the location bar
- Notification panel spawned from the indicator target
- See Firefox/Projects/Doorhanger_notifications/Design, although that may be out-of-date...
Goals
- Unify the existing authentication UI (modal dialogs, notification bars, etc.) to handle user authentication in a doorhanger notification that is accessible, easily dismissable, and not phishable/spoofable.
Non-Goals
- Firefox/Projects/SiteIdentity (might be out-of-date)
- Firefox/Projects/Doorhanger_notifications (might be out-of-date)
- Geolocation UI is being handled by another project.
- Converting all existing prompts and notification bars is not a goal of this project.
