I also hope that this will help to curb some of the tacky and sometimes sneaky practices that I've seen implemented lately to try and monetize an add-on.

This will remove the extra step from donating to an extension. How far are we from some sort of appstore? It would be nice to be able to buy webgames from Mozilla Add-ons. “Mozilla is considers the program” should remove “is”

Sounds great. This will remove the extra step from donating to an extension. How far are we from some sort of appstore? It would be nice to be able to buy webgames from Mozilla Add-ons.
