If a tab showing about:addons is already open, it should be switched to when clicking the "Manage Add-ons" button in the Preferences window, rather than opening a second one. This would make it consistent with the Tools > Add-ons menu item.

Comment on attachment 500725 [details] [diff] [review] Patch to make it so BrowserOpenAddonsMgr is only defined in the preferences window on Mac via macBrowserOverlay.xul... On Windows/Linux, this patch results in "BrowserOpenAddonsMgr is not defined" error.

This might just be a dupe of bug 565686 - slightly different scenario, but I think a patch for that bug would fix this one.
OK, let's wait to see if it gets fixed as part of that bug.
Depends on: 565686
The "Manage Add-ons…" button doesn't exist anymore (bug 513164).
