So normal websites can do the same too, then, right? And there is not a security problem with that? Anyway, it's cool that it works! About the Permissions notifications issue, that is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685652 as David Chan mentioned. It needs a similar treatment as the PushPrefEnv patch. A workaround that probably can be used, is adding a lame setTimeout(nextTest, 0). That worked with the pref setting before the PushPrefEnv patch, iirc.
