A addon configuration menu and a external configuration file would be nice to use the integrator without modifiing the xpi.

This would certainly add a lot of flexibility to the way the SOGo front-end components are deployed.

The other angle to consider is security.  I am amazed that Mozilla still allow an XPI to be modified after it is published by the developer.  In most cases these days a signature would be required at release and anything updating it subsequently would render it untrusted.  Let's face it the ideal behaviour of something nefarious is to edit the code of a plug-in!  Surely this is something that must code to Thunderbird and then the SOGo Integrator would be unusable anyway?
From end user perspective it would be "best", when they can install the addon from the official thunderbird plugin site.

The plugin could (yes I know, someone has to implement it) then use some kind of auto detection/config and retrieve the current integration data from the sogo server.
Similar to what happens when you have a working auto config for email.
