55.0a1 (2017-03-23) (64-bit) steps to reproduce: 1. On Nightly, set pref extensions.webextensions.themes.enabled to true 2. Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/themes/?sort=popular and install any of the old-style LWTs 3. Notice that after the install is successful there is a notification bar at the top with options to Undo/Manage Themes. 4. Install a new static theme and notice the install flow expected behavior: install flow for the new static themes is similar to old-style LWTs actual behavior: install flow for the new static themes is exactly like a webextension which may not be apt for themes. screencast: https://www.dropbox.com/s/242mgg5nlulz8y1/installflow.mov?dl=0
Krupa, how did you create that .xpi? Can you tell me how you created it or point me to a wiki page? Thanks!

Steps to create a new-style static theme: 1. Create a manifest.json using the sample listed in https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ueD6V7aLLTuc1GAOxxQYcwl2HR-k62HHu3q8knTJ4FU/edit?pli=1#heading=h.bij4y75jj419 2. Link to the relevant images in the folder which is zipped and then converted to an xpi (header image was copied from an existing LWT) 3. Have the .xpi file signed by uploading it as an unlisted add-on (you can skip this step on Nightly by turning the signing off) Let me know if these steps are clear enough.

Dave, before I update all the tests, what do you think of this approach? I wanted LWTs to adopt the WebExtensions Themes flow, because retro-fitting felt like a bad idea and unnecessary maintenance burden.

Comment on attachment 8855812 [details] [diff] [review] WIP Patch: Change install flow of LWTs to use PopupNotifications Review of attachment 8855812 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- The approach seems fine however I think you'll need to rev the l10n ids since you're displaying them in a different context. Has UX signed off on this change though?
