if you use [add-on compatibility reporter](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compat...) then you can tell firefox to use 'incompatible' extensions anyway. most of the time they work just fine.

Good to know, thank you.

Of course, there's the potential incompatibility of the incompatibility reporter, but I digress.

It the newest Aurora build of Firefox, it's even easier. In about:config, toggle extensions.strictCompatibility to False.
