No arguments. =)

The inclusion of the .xpi only happened because i thought it would be 
nice to make available a click-and-install solution.

Like you said, it doesn't have to happen on the source code tree. The 
plugin tree already provides a Makefile that could be adapted to build 
the .xpi on the release tarballs only.

Would also like to let people know that TB3 isn't forgotten. I'm trying 
to find time to finish the port but finding the right way through the 
new API already gave me a headache... bare with me a few more days 
please.. =)


Side note: the .xpi is actually just a zip file with structured content. 
So the xpi is archived source. =)

Best regards,

Hugo Monteiro.
