By the time the user gets to this dialog they have either:
- done a local install from disk
- received an install request from a whitelisted site
Seems to me that the string is globally incorrect, and should be changed to:
itemWarningIntroMultiple=You have asked to install the following %S items:
itemWarningIntroSingle=You have asked to install the following item:

beltzner, I agree this is better but wanted to point out that there is also the case where a web site could initiate an install that could display the dialog as long as the site is already added to the whitelist. I personally think this case is too edgey to bother with in regards to this text since the vast majority of the time an install will be user initiated whether it be from a web page or a local install.

Yeah, I considered that edge case, and came to the same conclusion. :)
