This is related to today's fix to address #212. Firefox has this trick to batch install extensions by putting .xpi files directly into extensions folder. Using today's fx-folder.zip, this functionality is broken.
How to Reproduce
Shut down Firefox. Manually place .xpi files into extensions folder. (Note: their filenames have to be the same as application-id. See screenshot below.) Restart Firefox.
Expected Behavior
Firefox should recognize these files and register them on "about:addons". They are put in disabled mode until user activates them. The screenshot below is made from Firefox using previous fx-folder.zip.
Actual behavior
Firefox cannot recognize these .xpi files. Nothing is show under "about:addons".
