Details

The API should return the same information for experimental add-ons like for public ones (except install node). Of course I could parse the details page for the add-on to get the info, but I don't like overhead.
This would require a change in how the Addon Manager works. Dave, your thoughts?
I don't think it would require a change to the client. We only pay attention to the public items in the results, specifically those with a <status> element that has an id attribute equal to 4.
Is this the reason that an Experimental add-on does not get automatically updated when a newer Experimental version is available, and even if logged in -- the Tools, Add-ons, update will not show that an update is available.

No, that's bug 375359. I agree with comment 0 also.
