We should add a pref to enable/disable insecure password warnings in case we decide we need to hold it back from release, but want to keep it in the other channels (especially dev edition).

Comment on attachment 8680915 [details] [diff] [review] Bug1217156-10-29-15B.patch Approval Request Comment [Feature/regressing bug #]: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1179961 [User impact if declined]: Developers will see insecure password warnings on HTTP pages AND localhost pages, without learn more links. We need to fix localhost and add learn more before we can expose this to developers [Describe test coverage new/current, TreeHerder]: There is a test for the feature that is still enabled. This bug just disables the feature for everything but nightly. [Risks and why]: Developers will become habituated to the warning since they will see it on localhost. Which is the opposite of what we want - we want them to fix it. [String/UUID change made/needed]: None

How can it fix the problem on desktop and > unfix it on B2G? it was a simple problem with the setup of the 2.5 branch. we merged mozilla-central to 2.5 and reverted this. (ended up doing a merge from mozilla-aurora instead of m-c).
