Summary: Create an option to open the data manager in a standalone window instead of a browser tab. → Create options to open the data manager and the addon manager in standalone windows instead of a browser tab
Changes since the last patch: 1. Use toOpenWindowByType() instead of window.openDialog() 2. Do the same for the Add-ons Manager.

We should probably have a bug to expose those prefs in the UI once this is done, e.g., in the "Tabbed Browsing" prefpane (though neither Add-ons nor Data Manager are specific to "Browser") or "Advanced" as a more general alternative.
BTW: This "sort-of" works already by switching Browser > Link Behavior for "Links from other applications" from opening in the current tab/window or a new tab in the current window to "A new window" but will still open as a complete browser window with all toolbars, etc.

I think I'll leave the addon manager to false, but data manager to true. > Could a follow bug be created to expose these prefs? Sure. But we need to think where to put them. > r=me with those answered/dealt with
