Huge discussion here.

Looks like a duplicate (or a cause) of #54.

Hi futpib, would this be the reason ? :

nsIContentPolicy https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Reference/Interface/nsIContentPolicy ( Great page by the way for info on the available content types ) ^

Note: When multiple content policies are used (for example through several extensions), if one of them rejects a request, the rest of the policies are not called. Reference: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/content/base/src/nsContentPolicy.cpp#146.

Note: The order of content policies in the above case depends on the precedence of installation.
