addon

Ideas for an addon (or not):

• There are already some addons, which mostly tweak about:config settings. Maybe we can build on that.
• The options format is almost json, it's planned to export this into .json files and read it into python (a simple json.dump/load does the trick).
• With jetpack / the new web extensions should a gui with html and tuning settings be easy
• Installation of other addons may be hard, especially with the more restricted future web addons api.

Pro:

• Tuning is a process, which needs to keep up with newer firefox versions

Contra:

• It's easy to create a fresh profile, but a existing one must not break.

Alternatives:

• some Upload/Paste your config option, which merges it with javascript on the website will be possible and useful anyway: https://github.com/allo-/firefox-profilemaker/issues/25
