The sync logins infobar [1] is more of an advertisement than an infobar and should be removed. Ideally we'd remove the code but if that's too difficult we can force the signon.management.page.showPasswordSyncNotification to disable the infobar.

[1] https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/6c9ff2820d3aae683ec87c53c79e5108d54f3f76/browser/components/aboutlogins/AboutLoginsParent.jsm#664

Shouldn't this be in Firefox :: about:logins?

It would be great to remove it, more than disabling it, because these strings are getting in the way of removing the Sync brands (bug 1700638). I tried to look into it, but there's simply too much code for me to remove it safely.

I'll see if I can knock this out.
